IMAGES: A Pictorial History of Italian Americans

The new edition of IMAGES has been expanded and updated with more than 60 photographs in  full color. This beautifully appointed bilingual edition sets out to explore through the medium of photography the Italian immigrant and ethnic experience in the United States. Divided into twelve chapters, the book illustrates the passage of four generations of Italians to America, with a perceptive and comprehensive statement on the building of a pluralistic society. Each chapter opens with a brief introductory text providing the social and historical background of the pictures that follow.
