La Mia Famiglia
Author: Anthony Scarpo
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780578546698
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
From modest beginnings in a Pennsylvania coal mine to the height of success in Tampa, Florida, there was one constant threat in the Scarpo family's lives--the mafia. In small-town Pennsylvania, Tony Scarpo's grandfather Antonio, an immigrant from Bari, Italy, ran afoul of a gangster who terrorized the family for months. Antonio's message to his children was: "Never let them steal your name." It was a lesson Tony's father, Art Scarpo, took with him into the bar business in Tampa, a lesson he never forgot when the Trafficante crime family came calling. Alongside the Chicago Syndicate and New York's Five Families, the Trafficantes were one of the pillars of the American Mafia. But little Tony had no idea why his father came home beaten and bloodied. He was just a kid growing up on the outskirts of Tampa, with little-boy dreams and calls to adventure. His 'normal' featured sideshow freaks, crime, violence, bizarre deaths--and murder. As he grew older, however, his father peeled back the veneer to reveal just how dangerous it was for a bar owner in Tampa and how devastating it was to say 'no' to the Trafficante crime family. But could the Scarpo family escape the reign of terror brought down by the mob while saving both their name and their lives? Read this enthralling, heart-wrenching story of one family's struggle against organized crime and of one boy's coming of age that was anything but 'normal.'

The walls of their adobe homes stand in ruin today, but for 150 years, the Nuñez and Guillén families lived and worked side by side in the small pueblo of San Javier El Oro, in Durango, Mexico. "La Familia Nuñez: A Migrant's Story" traces the ancestry and lives of Juan de Dios Nuñez and Sara Guillén.

Juan was a migrant worker in the 1940s-60's Bracero program; Sara, known as Llalla, was a homeopathic healer who lost six of her sixteen children in infancy and childhood. Llalla's determination to keep her children together and find a better life helped carry the family from rural Mexico to the congested border town of Ciudad Juárez on to their eventual immigration to the United States.
