Finishing Chapter 6

Chapter 6 had started off talking a lot about the Irish immigrants. How there life was, what they did to better it, what were the differences, and where most of them lived and the household jobs they had. What made an Irish immigrant. Chapter six later goes into many details about German immigrants, comparing them to Irish and along with a religious group the Jews. The German Jews were differ from the Germans. I really found comparing and contrasting the both of them to be interesting, honestly I had thought they would have a lot more similarities, but they did not. The chapter went into account of mentioning interesting facts about the Irish, Germans, certain religions such as Jews, Protestants,  and Scandinavians. One interesting fact about the scandinavians were how they came to the states. What caused them to come and what advantages they had coming.
