The Zignegos were one of the first Italian families to settle in Minnesota. The family's history is traced here from its origins in the hillside towns along the Ligurian Coast in northwestern Italy to America, where family members carved out new lives as farmers, gold prospectors, peddlers, and even as an organ grinder. Includes generational family charts, 115 historic photos, many in color, as well as extensive footnotes, bibliography, and index.
