1475 The German-Americans, by LaVern J. Rippley (read 9 Jan 1978) For reasons unknown to me now, I did no post-reading note on this book. I don't think I was greatly impressed by it. I read it because two of my grandparents were born in Germany and a third grandparent is descended from persons born in Baden. (
