Summary "New Homes for Old" by Sophonisba Preston Breckinridge is a social studies publication written in the early 20th century. The book aims to explore the adjustment of immigrant family life in the United States, particularly focusing on how immigrants adapt to the American way of living and establish their homes. Breckinridge, a professor of social economy, emphasizes the importance of understanding immigrant experiences and the necessary social and infrastructural support to help them integrate into their new communities. The opening of the book introduces the context of rising immigration in America and outlines the challenges that newly arrived families face upon their arrival. It describes how these families often encounter difficulties in finding proper accommodations and integrating into communities that lack established systems for welcoming immigrants. Breckinridge highlights issues of disorganization, social barriers, and the importance of community hospitality, suggesting that genuine engagement from native-born Americans is critical for fostering mutual understanding and support. This section sets the stage for a broader exploration of immigrant experiences, family dynamics, and the need for systemic change to facilitate their transition into American society.
