Download or read book Milwaukee s Italian Heritage written by Anthony M. Zignego and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shores of Lake Michigan might seem a far cry from the coastline of the Mediterranean, even for a country famous for its opera singers. Nevertheless, enough Italians responded to the calland returned home to repeat it confidently to brothers, brides and strangersto create a thriving community in Milwaukee. Historians often emphasize Milwaukees German heritage, content to relegate the story of Italian migration to New York or Chicago, but Anthony Zignego passionately explores the ways in which Italians shaped the Brew City and were shaped by it in turn. From the Gardetto family to the enterprising women of the Third Ward to Festa Italiana, Zignego presents a portrait of the immigrant experience with personal stories and interviews with ordinary immigrants and Milwaukeeans, explaining the communitys traditions and dispelling some of its myths. Milwaukees Italian Heritage highlights the struggles and triumphs that have always made immigration an opening clause and concluding question in the American story.

Download or read book Italian Milwaukee written by Martin Hintz and published by Arcadia Library Editions. This book was released on 2004-11-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milwaukee's Italian families have a distinguished heritage, one that began in a great rush to the city shortly before the turn of the 19th century. Seeking a way out of the economic misery of their homeland, tens of thousands of Italians made their way to the Midwest, lured by the promise of Milwaukee's well-paying factory and service industry jobs. The emigres brought their colorful traditions and culture with them, making themselves at home in close-knit neighborhoods. Arrivals from various villages settled into specific blocks, with a widespread Sicilian contingent living in the old Third Ward, while Italians from the north settled in Bay View. Others moved into the Brady Street area. Not afraid to work, at first the Italians were railroad employees, fruit peddlers, refuse collectors, shopkeepers, tavern owners, or skilled craft workers in the masonry and stone trades. Today, the descendants of those first arrivals make up an extraordinary share of Milwaukee's business leaders, politicians, clergy, restaurateurs, and educators, while others have become police officers and military personnel. The Italian Community Center and Festa Italiana continue to provide marvelous opportunities to socialize.

Download or read book Classic Restaurants of Milwaukee written by Jennifer Billock and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-02 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milwaukee may be known for beer, brats and custard, but the city's food history is even richer and tastier. At the Public Natatorium, diners supped at an old public pool and watched a dolphin show at the same time. Solly's, Oriental Drugs and others nurtured a thriving lunch counter culture that all ages enjoyed. Supper clubs and steakhouses like Five O'Clock reigned supreme. And we can't forget about the more illicit side of Milwaukee meals, like the mafia hangouts and a local fast-food chain with a mysterious resemblance to a national brand. Pairing the history of classic restaurants with recipes of favorite dishes, author Jennifer Billock explores both the well-known and the quirkier sides of Milwaukee's dining past.
