This work delves into the lives and experiences of Finnish immigrants in America, exploring their cultural, social, and economic conditions as they adapt to a new land. The book aims to enlighten readers about the history of Finnish settlement in the United States, emphasizing the importance of these immigrants in the broader context of American society. At the start of the book, the author dedicates his work to his fellow Finns in America, expressing the need for greater awareness among the Finnish population about their compatriots abroad. He outlines the historical backdrop of Finnish immigration, mentioning earlier settlers and how they navigated life in America. The opening also touches on the significant phenomenon of migration from Finland, motivated by various factors such as poverty and the pursuit of better opportunities, while establishing the identity of the "American Finns."
