Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In America the streets were paved with gold. That was the mistaken notion of many an immigrant to the United States in the late 1800s and early 1900s. On Long Island, deluded sojourners from Italy were to find that in fact there were few streets and that they themselves were to be the ones to build them. Covering more than a century of history, Long Island Italians depicts the transition of urban Italians as they moved increasingly from the city to the suburbs in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. They were attracted to Long Island by economic opportunity, the availability of arable land, home ownership possibilities, and alternatives to harsh city life. There, they became the largest of all ethnic groups, with more Americans of Italian descent living in one concentrated area than anywhere besides Italy. The Italian American presence is a continuing phenomenon, today comprising about 25 percent of the total population of Long Island. Long Island Italians graphically illustrates that Italian labor was vital to the development of Long Island roads, agriculture, railroads, and industry. By the early twentieth century, Italians made up the bulk of the work force. The book goes beyond the laborers to show also the warmth of Italian family life, the strength of the social organizations, and the rise of the politicians.

Download or read book The Italians written by John Julius Norwich and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 1983 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To immerse oneself in the history of Italy is to go back to the roots of Western civilization. The authors of this major new volume have sought to answer the question: How did the qualities of "Italianness" that make Italy unique arise in history? Their various journeys to the heart of Italy -- the country that has produced the Papacy, such centers of civilization and exploration as Florence and Venice, an imperishable literature, the supreme sanity of humanist art, the intoxication of opera -- call up some of the most beautiful, dramatic images in the human reportory. They are fully represented in the almost 300 striking illustrations in this volume, 70 in full color, and supplemented by brilliant modern photography. Images, ideas, and imagination -- all three are here in abundance in a book that is certain to appeal to a wide and diversified audience and to set standards for years to come. -- From publisher's description.

Book excerpt: Providing a comprehensive history of Italy from around 1800 to the present, Italy in the Modern World traces the social and cultural transformations that defined the lives of Italians during the 19th and 20th century.

There are individual chapters on key topics, such as unification, Italians in the world, Italy in the world, science and the arts, fascism, the World Wars, the Cold War, and Italy in the 21st century, as well as a wealth of useful features for students, including: * Comprehensive bibliographic essays covering each of the four parts * 23 images and 12 maps Italy in the Modern World also firmly places both the nation and its people in a wider global context through a distinctly transnational approach. It is essential reading for all students of modern Italian history.
