About This Book
*Awake America!* is a classic example of the anti-Semitism and general xenophobia that followed the influx of southeastern European immigrants to the United States in the last years of the 19th century and the opening years of the 20th. The animus of the beleaguered WASP establishment toward the "interlopers" built through the 1930s and 1940s, Grundy's book was written at the height of the vitriol. It is an important document, in its way - as an all-too-clear example of the mind-set that sent European Jews to their death rather than take them in.
