In Immigrants on the Hill; Gary Mormino traces the Hill’s evolution from its roots in Lombardy and Sicily to contemporary times; focusing on those institutions that have sustained and nurtured the community. He reveals how; in work; play; religion; politics; and even bootlegging; Hill Italian-Americans have consistently encouraged ethnic pride; working-class solidarity; and family honor. His study; now with a new preface; shows why this ethnic enclave has garnered national attention.
