John Radzilowski, Professor of History at the University of St. Thomas, reviews Ethnic Pride and American Patriotism: Slovaks and Other New Immigrants in the Interwar Era. The book is about how Slovak Americans defined themselves during the period between the two world wars. The author describes Slovak American identity during this time as dual or blended patriotism that included ethnic pride in being Slovak and loyalty to America and American ideals.
