About this item
Who hasn't been to an Italian restaurant? Few nationalities celebrate and share their food traditions more than people from Italy. Inside, read how immigration to America and other nations spurred the now-worldwide popularity of Italian food. Also, find out how Italian immigrant families continue to use the table as their community gathering place. No matter where they come from, people living together have a long history of sharing meals, eating foods and dishes that have been passed down for centuries. In this series, find out how the experience of eating together helps create new communities while building strong bonds to the old. Each title in CONNECTING CULTURES THROUGH FAMILY AND FOOD includes color photos throughout, and back matter including an index and further reading lists for books and internet resources.
