The Scots-Italians by Joe Pieri
Teased for being a 'dirty Tally' at school, working in a Glasgow fish and chip shop, being held in an internment camp during World War II along with every male of Italian birth in Scotland, Joe Pieri's own story encapsulates what it was like for many generations of Italians who emigrated to Scotland in search of a fresh start.
'.. an astounding tour de force... it is our pleasure to read him... ' The Herald '... impossible to put down... Pieri is a natural-born storyteller.' Richard Demarco in Scotland on Sunday, 'Favourite Reads of 2005'
Joe Pieri arrived in Glasgow from Italy in 1919 and has lived there ever since. He is the author of several books, including 'Wheel of Fortune', also published by Mercat Press
