My newest book available now for pre-order
I’m excited to announce my new book Italians of the North End: A History Of Grit, Perseverance & Tradition is being released on February 19, 2024.
The North End has always seemed familiar to me, although no one in my family lived there at any time in my life. It is familiar because it was and is the essence of being Italian. The North End has the warm feeling of a protected enclave steeped in culture and history. I have always been aware that beneath that veneer there is more than a century of evolution—hardship, discrimination, persistence, perseverance, connection to the past and pushing into the future. My curiosity about the rich history of this community is what compelled me to spend a year of Saturdays in the North End library searching for answers and writing this book.
I hope that you will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed the journey of researching and writing it. You can pre-order your copy now!
