      • V razpravi je avtor analiziral korespodenco benediktinskega patra Wencla Šolarja (1895-1911), ki je opravljal dušnopastirsko delo v ameriških državah Pennsylvaniji in Illinoisu. Pisma so naslovljena na sorodnike v vasici Rudno v Selški dolini na Gorenjskem. Avtorja je še zlasti zanimal Šolarjev opis duhovniškega dela v Ameriki, njegovi vtisi o'novi domovini', odnos do priseljenih rojakov in priseljevanja ter opis vsakdanjega življenja priseljencev v Ameriki. Originalna pisma hrani 'Immigration History Research Center, University of Minnesota', v St. Paulu (Minnesota).
