"An impressive fusion of the inner histories of immigrant social and religious life." --John W. Briggs, American Historical Review "An in-depth historical study of the Italian-American community and its religion, without sentimentalizing values and perceptions."-- Kirkus Reviews In a masterful evocation of Italian Harlem and the men and women who lived there, Robert Orsi examines how the annual festa of the Madonna of 115th Street both influenced and reflected the lives of the celebrants.

This edition includes a new introduction by the author that outlines both the changes that Italian Harlem has undergone in recent years and significant shifts in the field of religious history.
