Kuropas portrays the resistance of Ukrainians to disappearing in the American melting pot. He shows how American Ukrainians developed from Rusyns with an essentially religiocultural identity into a distinct ethnonationality. Beginning with the European and American roots of this ethnic group, he traces the evolution of the Ukrainian Americans and their religious, political, and cultural aspirations. With 32 pages of historical photographs. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Ukrainians arrived in Chicagoland in four distinct waves: 1900-1914, 1923-1939, 1948-1956, and 1990-2006. At the beginning of the 20th century, immigrants from Ukraine came to Chicago seeking work, and in 1905, a Ukrainian American religio-cultural community, now officially named Ukrainian Village, was formally established. Barely conscious of their ethnonational identity, Ukraine's early immigrants called themselves Rusyns (Ruthenians). Thanks to the socio-educational efforts of Eastern-rite Ukrainian Catholic and Orthodox priests, some Rusyns began calling themselves Ukrainians, developing a distinct national identity in concert with their brethren in Ukraine.
