The story of Italian settlement, from 1788 to World War II and beyond. It is the story of Italians who fled war, persecution and poverty for a better life in Australia. From struggling to build a new home, to suffering internment and POW camps, to burgeoning employment and thriving prosperity. Italians have fearlessly adapted to their new homeland.
The joys and frustrations of their new life are captured here in a rich mix of personal anecdotes and history, private mementos and captivating photographs. (Trove)
