The Americanization of Edward Bok is a memoir written by Edward Bok, a Dutch-American author and editor. The book chronicles Bok's life from his childhood in the Netherlands to his rise as a successful editor in the United States. Bok immigrated to the United States with his family when he was a young boy and quickly assimilated into American culture. He worked his way up the ranks of the publishing industry, eventually becoming the editor of Ladies' Home Journal, one of the most popular magazines of the time. Along the way, Bok encountered many challenges, including discrimination and anti-immigrant sentiment. Despite these obstacles, he persevered and became a prominent figure in American society. The Americanization of Edward Bok is a fascinating look at the immigrant experience in America and the power of hard work and determination.Afterward, Edward found out that, as a matter of fact, it was the President's only copy. Though the boy did not then appreciate this act of consideration, his instinct fortunately led him to copy the speech and leave the original at the President's stopping-place in the morning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
