The Newburgh, St. Clair and Collinwood neighborhoods formed the core of Greater Clevelands enormous Slovenian population, still the largest in America. The citys Slovenian heritage is replete with gripping tales of World War II prison camp escapes and bizarre bank robbers who threatened the St. Clair Savings institution. The catastrophic East Ohio Gas explosion and tragic Collinwood school fire are etched into local consciousness. The rise of neighborhood residents to professional sports stardom and national political prominence contribute to a proud legacy. And the century-old ``Cleveland style`` Slovenian polka remains an important cultural expression. Author Alan Dutka offers the first comprehensive history of the struggles and triumphs of Clevelands Slovenians.
