Teaching the metric system in the foreign language classroom (Language in education)

"In this volume, author John Radzilowski tells the story of the Polish Americans, many of them political refugees, who created and sustained community institutions across Minnesota. He describes how they developed a significant literary tradition, published newspapers, and built distinctive churches that still adorn the landscape, and he traces the careers of individuals who immigrated with little and built businesses and new lives. This overview, filled with intriguing details, shows how Polish Americans established their own cultural identity within the state."--BOOK JACKET.
