{"product_id":"polish-pittsburgh-stanley-states-phd-9781467127196","title":"Polish Pittsburgh","description":"In the late 19th and early 20th century, Pittsburgh, also known as \"Steel City,\" was the largest steel-producing center in the United States. With its need for labor in the steel industry, Pittsburgh had an insatiable hunger for workers. Polish immigrants helped meet this demand. The city of Pittsburgh, as well as the surrounding area, was a heavily ethnic environment, and significant remnants of that heritage continue. Today, there is still a city neighborhood officially designated Polish Hill (Polski Gory). This book chronicles the immigration of Poles to Pittsburgh in several waves, beginning with those from German-occupied Poland, then Russian-occupied Poland, and finally, the largest group emigrating from that section of partitioned Poland under the control of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanley States Phd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467127191\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467127196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.50w x 0.30d","brand":"Stanley States Phd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987739115775,"sku":"9781467127196","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bdb542fc-d615-42a9-868a-81c6c9330f5d.jpg?v=1683290699","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/polish-pittsburgh-stanley-states-phd-9781467127196","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
