As the books of the WPA's American Guide Series began to appear in the 1930s, federal administrators realized that an important story--that of the American people themselves--remained to be told. To tell that story "from the human angle" they initiated the ethnic studies project, aiming to produce books that were "colorful and interesting to the great American public." Many studies were started, but only a few were published before World War II put an end to the WPA.
