In 1909 a small family group left their impoverished village in the region of Basilicata, southern Italy, and settled, a world away, in Melbourne Australia. The book explores their humble origins in both countries against a backdrop of local, national and global history. The stories are revealed through personal anecdotes, photos, sketches, kinship charts, anthropological analysis and recipes.
