O knihe
Nicholas Manfredo always said he lived his
childhood as the archetypical barefoot boy- with no shoes,
ragged clothing, and ever-present hunger.In this memoir,
author Joseph N. Manfredo recounts his father's life
story-from his birth in 1900 to his death at age
ninety-three in 1993.
Born into abject poverty in
southern Italy, Nicholas was abandoned by an uncaring father
who immigrated to America leaving behind his wife and two
little boys. Twelve years later, Nick's father sends for him
and he travels to America. Here, his story of struggle
continues as he marries Anna and strives to raise a family
during the Great Depression of the 1930s. The years that
follow are both heartwarming and bittersweet.
Entertaining and emotional, Only the Living is a life story
that could fit any one of the many thousands of European
immigrants who brought to America the muscle and integrity
that made it a great nation.
