Their is a similar book that I have found, it deals with Cleveland, Ohio.
It is a part of the Cleveland Ethnic Heritage Studies- Done by Cleveland
State University in 1981

It is titled Hungarians and their communities of Cleveland: by Susan M. Papp

It gives alot of insight on Hungarian History, genealogy,life and
immigration information:
This book deals with two main communities or neighborhoods of
Cleveland, Ohio.

> I have some more details on it at my website:
