Do you have unresolvable family problems'? Do you long for the freedom and adventure of life on a frontier? The answer for you may be the one chosen by 75,000 Americans in the years 1963-1973: migrate to Australia. Why these people emigrated from the United States and why they chose A ustralia as their new home are two of the subjects Dennis Laurence Cuddy discusses in his new book. The Yanks are Coming. The book is an outgrowth of Cuddy's work on his dissertation he took his PhD. in history here in Chapel H ill last December. H is study of Australia stemmed from an interest in parliamentary forms of government aroused by the presidential primaries of 1968. Returning to college after a four-year stint as a public school teacher, he directed his efforts toward a partial investigation of the mysterious drawing power of the land "down under." The Yanks . are Coming considers a number of aspects of immigration to Australia. As a study of migration from one specific place to another, the book deals with historical parallels between Australia and the U nited States the use of both as British colonies for undesirables (deportation to Australia began when sending convicts to America became unfeasible), the simultaneous gold strikes, the lure of adventure in the frontier. Cuddy then moves on to the decision to emigrate. His study includes a survey of Americans in Australia and he presents their reasons for leaving both in tabulated form and in their own words. He also discussed initial impressions of, and final settlement in, Australia. The survey respondents' commentary covers the land, the government, food available in stores, educational systems, and opinions of their new neighbors, the "Aussies." s The fifth chapter is quite unusual and, in many ways, the most rewarding section of the book, at least to the non-specialist. It contains autobiographical statements by a number of the immigrants. While this is not the sort of data one would want to make sweeping generalizations from, it does give some idea of how people settle into a new home, the beginning of an intuitive grasp of the assimilation process on the individual level. As a whole, The Yanks are Coming offers a fascinating overview of the migration process. Faults can be found with the research methodology (Specifically sample size and the use of an unsupervised free response questionnaire), but most of the arguments seem well-founded, the text is replete with charts and tables, and the charm of the autobiographies is undeniable. 3:30 5:30 7:30 9:30 3:15 5:15 7:15 9:15 3:00 5:00 7:00 9:00 Race For Your Life, XX7 mm mm iCi Banivbrowni III C5u&tte, m MomnaUd lor 3 Acadarrrf Award, BEST FOREIGN FILM BEST ACTRESS Hackney's has Carolina Fever Mugs, plaques, jackets, cushions!
