Interesting; but not comprehensiveBy DanielPokeyVery interesting; but limited to only several prominent families during the period of about 1920 onward. My ancestors arrived in Indianapolis prior to 1900; so I was looking forward to a more comprehensive history of Indianapolis Italians than this book presents. Otherwise; an interesting collection.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Incomplete historyBy CJD2Author missed several families that contributed to the Italian heritage of Indianapolis. Could be from lack of cooperation from family members or the author not digging enough to find family members to learn more. Whatever it is it iwas a disappointment to find an incomplete history.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good quality and photosBy Rebecca PorterMy family did not originate from Indianapolis but I was curious about the Italian heritage here. This is a very nice coffee table book and it answers some questions about businesses here and how they started.
