Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is the story of my paternal great grandfather's immigration from Naples, Italy to Gloversville, New York in 1898. At age forty-seven Pasquale DaCorsi immigrated to America to make a better life for his family. He left his wife and sons behind in Italy with the plan of having them join him a few months later. As his ship arrives in the New York harbor his eyes immediately gaze at the majestic Statue of Liberty. He is brought to tears with the statue in full view as he realizes his new dawn is about to begin. This is his Alba Nuova. Alba Nuova, a new dawn, comes to life as Pasquale steps off the steamship SS Aller and steps foot onto American soil exclaiming that he has arrived. The story is a true life novel that tells of the new beginning for an immigrant who chose to come to America. The traditions of the Italian heritage and Italian culture from Pasquale's time have been passed down and maintained by family members generation after generation. Those traditions are captured throughout the story. If you enjoy Italian heritage, historical novels, reminiscing about your family culture, or just enjoy reading about a family who made America their home, this story is for you. If you are an Italian-American you will immediately connect with the story. Sunday family gatherings, weddings, social events, and the tales of the hard working Italian immigrants will bring back those memories from our grandparents and great-grandparents time. With the fast pace life we all experience in today's world, take some time to step back in time with Alba Nuova. This item is printed on demand.
