Book Review: Memoirs Of A Swiss Officer In The American Civil War, Michael Perman
Book Review: Memoirs Of A Swiss Officer In The American Civil War, Michael Perman
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
Three Years in the Army of the Potomac is the title of Rudolf Aschmann's 1865 memoir of his lengthy service in the First U.S. Sharpshooter Regiment and it has been translated from the German for the first time in Heinz Meier's edition. Its appearance in English after so long a period of obscurity (Bruce Catton does not even list it in his bibliography for the Potomac trilogy) will not provoke any interpretative reassessment of the military history of the American Civil War; it does not even contribute data previously unknown. But that does not matter; the account is nonetheless very …

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
Only some 130 years ago Chicago, now a sprawling metropolis of the Midwest, began to grow from a small prairie seaport on lake Michigan into a thriving American city. Many Swiss immigrants followed the trail of the thousands of newcomers to the emerging town who either hailed from the Atlantic seaport states and from Midwestern rural communities or who had crossed the Atlantic to become settlers of the white man's New world. By 1870 the city counted some 298,977 inhabitants, at the same date some 1,435 Swiss had settled in Cook County, many of whom lived in Chicago.

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
Rudolf Braun's study of the assimilation problems of Italian workers in Switzerland has two outstanding qualities which are rarely found together in the same work: It meets the strict professional standards of modern sociological research, but it is also written with the heart and therefore reads in its main parts like a captivating novel.

Observations On The School Systems In The United States And Switzerland, Erich A. Klee
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
One of the recurrent themes in the long history of U.S.-Swiss relations has to do with the reciprocal interest in each other's educational systems. Americans went to visit the schools and institutes of Pestalozzi and Fellenberg in the early 19th century and returned full with ideas of how to improve schools over here. They had successors who time and again hoped to get inspiration for their own work by studying how the Swiss went about the important task of educating the young.
