The Promised Land is a memoir written by Mary Antin, an immigrant from Russia who arrived in the United States in the late 1800s. The book chronicles Antin's experiences as a Jewish immigrant in America, from her arrival in Boston to her assimilation into American culture. Antin describes the challenges she faced as an immigrant, including learning a new language, adapting to a new culture, and navigating the complex social and economic systems of America. The book also explores Antin's personal journey of self-discovery and her search for identity as an American and a Jew. Through her vivid and engaging prose, Antin provides a unique perspective on the immigrant experience and the American dream. The Promised Land is a powerful and inspiring story of resilience, perseverance, and the pursuit of a better life.MY father and mother could tell me much more that I have forgotten, or that I never was aware of; but I want to reconstruct my childhood from those broken recollections only which, recurring to me in after years, filled me with the pain and wonder of remembrance. I want to string together those glimpses of my earliest days that dangle in my mind, like little lanterns in the crooked alleys of the past, and show me an elusive little figure that is myself, and yet so much a stranger to me, that I often ask, Can this be I?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
