"In this memoir Penny Petrone tells what it was like growing up in Northern Ontario as the daughter of parents who came to Canada from the class-bound feudal society of Southern Italy during the first quarter of this century when America was the dream of millions of Europeans. Ms. Petrone's experiences reveal the realities of the "good old days" of British imperialism and a "happy" ethnic upbringing.
Her book recounts not only her story but also that of thousands of uncelebrated working-class men and women who built Canada."--BOOK JACKET.
