The Unheavenly Haven of Harlem New York City is known as the melting pot. However, some believe that it is a salad bowl of different ethnic groups. This book explores the transitions that different ethnic groups had to overcome when immigrating into the great city of New York. There were several major ethnic groups living in East Harlem at the turn of the 20th century. The focus of this book is to show how the various religions were the focal point of each group, and how each group had to adjust the manner in which they practiced their religions in order to be accepted as Americans in their new environment. In addition it will show how the various groups introduced forms of the social gospel. The book will also explain how the various groups were able to provide each individual with an identity which defined his or her role within the larger community of Harlem between 1880 and 1935. By reading this great work by Daniel Agostinelli, the reader will grasp an in depth knowledge of the great Salad Bowl of New York City. This book is a must read for anyone interested in the ethnic groups of New York City, and wants to obtain a brief history from 1880 till 1935.
