A vivid first-person memoir of Jewish immigrant M. E. Ravage, who arrived from Romania in the early twentieth century. Ravage chronicles his experiences—from the challenges of emigrating and the realities of steerage—to adapting to American life, pursuing education (including college and law studies), and navigating cultural transformation. Steven G. Kellman’s introduction situates the work within historical and literary contexts, emphasizing its relevance in understanding how successive immigrant waves have shaped American identity.‑4537‑0
