Against The Current: Simple Chapters From A Complex Life is a memoir written by Edward Alfred Steiner and first published in 1910. The book is a collection of personal essays that provide insight into Steiner's life and experiences as an immigrant in the United States. Steiner was a prolific writer and social reformer who advocated for the rights of immigrants and minorities. In this book, he shares his own struggles and triumphs as an immigrant, and reflects on the challenges and opportunities that come with living in a new country. The essays cover a range of topics, from Steiner's childhood in Austria-Hungary to his work as a professor at Grinnell College in Iowa. Throughout the book, Steiner emphasizes the importance of education, community, and social justice. Against The Current is a powerful and inspiring memoir that offers a unique perspective on the immigrant experience in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
