On the eve of the 19th century, in 1781, French-American immigrant Hector St. Jean de Crevecoeur wrote a letter, the third in his famed Letters from an American Farmer, entitled “What Is An American?” His answer, as open for interpretation as it might be, was best been articulated in his fourth paragraph: “The American,” he writes, “is a new man, who acts upon new principles; he must therefore entertain new ideas, and form new opinions” (2). Two centuries later, however, American journalist James Fallows wrote an article entitled “Immigration: How It’s Affecting Us,” which almost entirely contradicts the nationalism that appears in de Crevecoeur’s essay. While both of the texts deal with this concept of “new,” the differentiation in pride and lack thereof the authors express in presenting the immigrant story reveals a difference in both personal perspective and an unfortunate lack of progress in the United States.

The seven years war fundamentally changed the relationship between Britain and its American colonies as the British thought that the American militia was poorly trained and disorderly. They also thought the colonists were useless because they were unwilling to help the troops. Moreover, the colonists hoped to reap the benefits in the form of access to the West lands and the British prohibited the colonies from settling in west. The war left Britain in debt and this debt caused Britain to tax colonies.These taxes irritated the colonies and rebel started against Britain.
