About On the Trail of The Immigrant

Journey back in time to delve into the poignant stories of immigrants who left everything behind in search of a new life in America. Edward Steiner, born into a prosperous Jewish-Slovak-Hungarian family, shares his own remarkable journey as he immigrated to the United States in 1886. Through the eyes of individuals from Hungary, Poland, Scandinavia, Germany, Italy, and beyond, we witness their struggles and triumphs. Steiners life was far from ordinary; he endured the harsh realities of sweatshops, toiled in metal factories, faced imprisonment for his activism, narrowly escaped a runaway train, and survived a violent mugging in Chicago. His journey ultimately led him to a loving Christian family in a small Midwestern town, where he found inspiration, embraced a new faith, and became a pastor advocating for progressive causes. This captivating narrative is an essential contribution to understanding the immigrant experience in Americas rich tapestry of history. - Summary by Phil Chenevert

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
