Abstract
The 'Italians of New York city, 1890-1914' is a comprehensive historical account of Italian American cultural development in the United States from the arrival of the early immigrants to 1914. To further an understanding of this Italian American population, Pozzetta provides information on the background from which the newcomers came, their reasons for emigration from their native homeland, and the culture that shaped and molded their entire system of values prior to arriving in America (p. v). Topics discussed include patterns of settlement, relations with native Americans and other ethnic groups (e.g., the Irish), crime, the Italian community, religion, economics, and politics .
