History Italians Trenton Colonization Share by Joseph Mainiero (1 results)

Softcover. Condition: Good. First edition. First (and only) printing. Oversized in illustrated olive green stiff wrappers138 pp. Illustrated with photographs. Generally very good though the front wraper had seperated and was reattached with clear tape; business card of a former chaiman of the Roma Federal Savings Bank affixed to the inner front cover; interior clean. Easily the scarcest of any of the Italian-American related Trenton histories (of which in any case there are only a few). It was published in observance of the 250th annivesary of the settlement of Trenton. In addition to the historical section, the work contains sections on Trentonian Italian "Pioneers and Patriarchs" , "Italians In War", "Churches and Schools" , Italian newspapers, "Outstanding Italians of Modern Times", Italians in the Profesisons and the Business world", "Music and Musicians", Lodges, Societies and Clubs", "Sports and Atheletics" , "Birthplaces oif the Italians of Trenton" , "Italian Profesisonal Men" then current, as well as real estate men, mechanics, laundries, and bakers, wholesale grocers and retailers, contractors and builders, and more.
