Founded in 1944, the Polish American Congress is an umbrella
organization that represents approximately ten million Americans of
Polish descent. This volume presents goals and everyday activities
of the Polish American Congress under the presidencies of Charles
Rozmarek (1944-1968) and Aloysius Mazewski (1968-1988) who shaped
its image in the Cold War era. It deals with the issues of both the
effectiveness and ineffectiveness of the PAC in representing Polish
American interests, as a coordinator of various Polish American
endeavors, as a lobbying organization, and as an institution
providing cultural and social unity for Poles in America. Wojdon
discusses internal and external factors that influenced the
Congress, portrays the personalities of its activists and examines
the PAC's achievements and faults.
