Abstract
Between the 1820s and the 1850s, the American economy is stirring with the beginnings of an industrial revolution, a change so profound that it transforms almost every aspect of life in the United States. This revolution is fueled by many factors beginning with an explosive growth in population and then a resurgence in immigration governed by the 1790 immigration bill enacted decades earlier. The potato famine in Ireland increases the number of Irish immigrants in the 1840s. More Germans arrive because of the German Revolution of 1848 and settle in rural areas of the U. S. Many native-born Americans react negatively to this increase in immigration.
