| 520 | |a Author Donna Clementoni, mining the resources of history and hearsay, pens a portrait of her Italian-American relatives in poetic tribute to their immigration to America in search of a better life for their families. Their trials and tribulations are recounted incharming and colorful verse as they assimilate into their new land, move into its neighborhoods, fight in its warsand pursue the American Dream.
