Polish Americans and Their
Communities of Cleveland
by John J. Grabowski, Judith Zielinski-Zak,
Alice Boberg, & Ralph Wroblewski
with an Introduction by Dr. Jerzy J. Maciuszko
1954
"Courageous, proud and daring, the Poles are like the eagle that has served as their national emblem since the twelfth century. They have preserved their culture and national identity against the nearly insurmountable odds of debilitating alien rule, devastating major wars and the surrender of their lands for 150 years to foreign powers. The Poles' intense pride in their culture is more than justifiable considering the broad spectrum of human endeavor they have enriched through their contributions."
This 3-part monograph by four different authors covers Polish history and culture, immigration to America, and the Polish community of Cleveland.
