From Peasants to Labourers

Vadim Kukushkin teaches Canadian history at the University of Alberta and Grant MacEwan College.

"From Peasant to Labourers is much more than an ethnic biography written in isolation from broader trans-Atlantic migration trends. There are references to a range of studies dealing with European immigration to North America, the economic and cultural experiences of these diverse European groups, and astute comparisons with 'Russian' migrants."
