An early 20th century reader compiled and published by a board of representatives from the Free Czech School in New York specifically for Czech immigrant children in the United States. Large-scale Czech immigration to the US began in the 1840s - sparked by the revolutionary movements at the beginning of the 19th century. Initially settling in Midwestern cities for the cheap farmland available by the 1870s many of them migrated to New York and specifically the Lower East Side in the area around Tompkins Square. By 1900 the Czech community in New York numbered over 27 000 people. That increase in numbers prompted the construction of schools churches and organizations' headquarters some of which are existing New York landmarks to this day. New York: Sboru Zastupcu Ceske Svob.
