Hamilton Holt (1872 – 1951) was an American educator, editor, author and politician. Holt served as editor and publisher of the weekly magazine The Independent in New York from 1897 to 1921.Holt was an outspoken advocate for reform, prohibition, immigrant rights, and international peace. In 1906 he published a collection of immigrants' life stories as "The Life Stories of Undistinguished Americans as Told by Themselves".The aim of each autobiography is to typify the life of the average worker in some particular vocation, and to make each story the genuine experience of a real person. From this list have been selected the following sixteen lives as most representative of the humbler classes in the nation, and of individuals whose training and work have been the most diverse. Thus we have the story of the butcher, the sweat-shop worker, the bootblack, the push-cart peddler, the lumber man, the dressmaker, the nurse girl, the cook, the cotton-picker, the head-hunter, the trained nurse, the editor, the minister, the butler and the laundryman. They also represent the five great races of mankind, the white, yellow, red, brown and black, and include immigrants from Lithuania, Poland, Sweden, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Greece, Syria, China and Japan. Some of these autobiographies, or "lifelets," are crude from a literary point of view, but they all have a deep human interest and perhaps some sociological importance.Lincoln said that "God must love the common people because he made so many of them." In all countries the question of national destiny is always ultimately settled by the will of majority, whether the people vote or not. It is the undistinguished people who move the world, or who prevent it from moving. And the wise statesman is he who can best read the minds of the non-vocal part of the population, the silent partners who have the controlling vote in the governmental firm.INTRODUCTIONI.
