The American Italian Historical Association has announced a new program to make authentic and authoritative information about Italian Americans available to the public.  According to President Mario Aste, professor and Chair of the Italian Department at the University of Massachusetts Lowell,  AIHA will offer Italian American and other organizations the opportunity to purchase the full set of 22 AIHA books at a deep discount if the organization agrees to donate the set of books to a public or college library in their region.  "We will send your organization 22 books, many of them hardcover, for a $100 donation; and that includes shipping," said Aste.

AIHA's thirty five year record of scholarship and research is one of the major sources to which Italian Americans and the general public can turn to find an authentic alternative to the bizarre image that the mass media has carved out for Italian Americans.  In an era of social mobility and family change, the work of the AIHA is one of the most important ways that the traditions, history, and literature by and about Italian Americans can be passed from one generation to the next.  Our authors and editors include names like Professors Rudolph Vecoli, Fred Gardaphe, Anthony Tamburri and others who are among the leading scholars in their fields.  Taken together the AIHA books include more than 200 studies of important issues.  Order a set for your local college and public library and order a set for your organization.
