A 10-story anthology, in Italian, that captures the struggles that millions of Italians experienced in their search for a better life outside Italy. The immigrants' stories, told through the voices of descendants or friends, richly express the emotion, pride and heartbreak of their emigration to the United States, Australia, Argentina and Canada. The book includes exercises for comprehension, discussion, research and writing; footnoted vocabulary with explanations in Italian; a table of passato remoto verbs in three conjugations; and cultural notes.
