Looking for ethnic heroes,
By Allan Kasprzak (East Aurora, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chasing the American Dream: Polish Americans in Sports (Hardcover)
An intriguing book by Mr. Tarapacki. It allows a reader to discover those of Polish ancestry and to live with their travails as they tried to move up the cultural mosaic and create a career for them that wasn't open upon their integration to the USA. In years past, those new colonists to the USA had to change their names in the hopes of making careers for themselves or keeping their ancestral names and not having those "doors" open to them. The book is an easy and enjoyable read not only for those of a Polish background but for all who have an interest in sports and their role in society. The only negative thing that I could find about this book was that it seemed too short in text. Hopefully Mr. Tarapacki can see fit and bring out a Chapter Two.
4.0 out of 5 stars

Good examination of Polish American sportsmen. Appears to be complete and includes a lot of info on each person examined.
