The Story of My People is a moving immigrant autobiography framed in the historical and cultural context of the 1960s and 70s. Reading this book one is persuaded even more by how great this country is as a land of opportunity. Eight immigrant children realize the American dream: three become physicians, one dentist, two university professors, and two teachers. Panelists will include Fred Gardaphé and Salvatore Rotella. Books will be available at a discounted price.
