- Synopsis
- Boston resident Puleo digs up the history of Italians and Italian-Americans in Boston's North End, from mass migrations beginning in 1880 through the first and second World Wars, the depression, and onto the present. Topics include violence at the hands of the Irish powers-that-be and difficult struggles for citizenship and equal rights, inter-Italian separation, local fallout of the Sacco and Vanzetti executions, and Boston-Italian leaders--some criminal, some not.
