This very timely book recounts the incredible courage and enormous sacrifices of Italian immigrants who braved long journeys, prejudice and discrimination to achieve a better life for their children. Hartford, Connecticut, represents a microcosm of the Italian immigrant's experience in the USA. The formula for success has been the same: hard work, savings and investment in a good education for our children. A perfect example of how the melting pot that is America works.
