Wagner's book provides a valuable case study, tying together not only basic push and pull factors, but also the responses of governments to the challenges of migration during the rapid urbanization and industrialization of Germany and the massive task of settling the Canadian Prairies ... it is a valuable study of the political, social, and technological processes facilitating migration in an international context that will be useful for future research in the field of migration history. - Christian Lieb, University of Victoria (Canadian Ethnic Studies, vol. XXXVIII, no. 1)
