Growing Up Italian-American is a wealth of knowledge. It's an exceptional read, much more than a memoir. History and culture share equally with family memories. As we pass through the 150 years of these two families' lives, we become acquainted with many historical Italian and Italian American events explained in detail and often with accompanying photographs. The author doesn't miss much. Growing Up Italian-American is a wealth of knowledge. For those researching genealogy, Dr. Visco's references and method will surely be an asset.

There is much to learn as Dr. Ferdinand Visco celebrates Italian culture as lived by the Baratta and Visco immigrant families.

A beautifully written book that was hard to put down. It is everyone's story, and I invite everybody to read it.

It's an amazing book that contains a wealth of information. This book needed to be written. True stories of good people. Parts are laugh-out-loud funny, and it contains great recipes too.

Whether you grew up in NYC, Philly, Boston, or any other immigrant Italian neighborhood in the world, this book is for you. Growing Up Italian American is a super book by Dr. Ferdinand Visco. Dr. V. gives us an inside look into the Baratta and Visco families.... many of whom became pharmacists and doctors. While they never lost sight of their roots, they believed in America and its values.
Bob Sorrentino - Host of the Italian Genealogy Blog and Podcast.
Excellent, solid research and compelling stories. Any Italian-American, regardless of where his or her family is from, can appreciate Dr. Visco's work because it breathes into life the words of our heritage: family, friends, food, camaraderie, honor......the list goes on......Bravo, Dr. Visco.

An Amazing Tour de Force in the Journey of Italian Americans.

A Fond Journey Back in Time. This is a very reader-friendly book. The vignettes are so vivid, one can almost hear Tito Schipa's version of "Comme Facette Mammeta" in the background at the turn of the previous century, and the Mario Lanza rendition as the author, Dr.Visco, came of age.
