Between 1880 and 1924, 4 million Italians emigrated to the US. Most of them came from Southern Italy and Sicily, areas devastated by poverty. #LAmerica #HistoricalFiction
“Much of this novel evokes empathy for those who suffered and struggled to surmount the poor circumstances into which they were born.”
“Another part of the book equally as evocative is the landing in New York City and having to pass through Ellis Island. Orazi takes you through the terror that immigrants experienced when being examined….” – Italian America Spring 2019
Read more to learn how our predecessors not only endured but overcame and, more importantly, contributed to the tapestry they once called, L’America.
Hi All. I’ve been invited to share about my book at Vineland Founder’s Day. I will be there at noon, signing copies and discussing the research, including a very interesting Vineland connection. Stop out if you’re in the area.
I hope you will read the 5 star reviews that have been posted on Amazon. (click on the Amazon pic)
I’m very blessed to have so many readers enjoying the book. Ten years of research and passion have yielded a novel of historical fiction that is laced with our ancestors’ history…..and we all owe our families not just a debt of gratitude for what they endured, but a clear understanding of how they made a way for each of us in L’America.
So very happy to announce my live interview on
The Positive Perspective, South Jersey’s Positive Morning Show Thursday at 9am on 99.9FM SNJ Today Radio
