Title: New Book on Pilsen published Publisher: Gazette Chicago Date: 6/30/2011 Peter N. Pero, who has worked as a teacher in the Pilsen community for more than ten years, has published Chicago's Pilsen Neighborhood in Arcadia Publishing's Images of America series. The book tells the history of Pilsen and presents more than 200 photographs and drawings, both vintage and contemporary. Pero's book "is about a piece of ground less than two square miles in size, but out of this compact community came poignant experiences related to work, worship, family unity, community pride, artistic expression, continuity, and change," he said. "It is no easy task to tackle the history of Pilsen, but author Peter Pero has done an admirable job in putting together this book," said Carlos Tortolero, president of the National Museum of Mexican Art. The book costs $21.99 and is available at area bookstores and online retailers or through Arcadia at www.arcadiapublishing.com or (888) 313-2665.
Synopsis
Many Chicagoans and tourists from outside the city are rediscovering this colorful and historic neighborhood. Let this history book serve as their guide. For nearly 150 years, Pilsen has been a port of entry for thousands of immigrants. Mexicans, Czechs, Poles, Lithuanians, Croatians, and Germans are some of the ethnic groups who passed through this "Ellis Island" on Chicago's Near Westside. Early generations came searching for work and found plenty of jobs in the lumber mills, breweries, family-run shops and large factories that took root here. Today most jobs exist outside of Pilsen, but the neighborhood is still home to a loyal population. Pilsen is compact but abounds with close-knit families, elaborate churches, mom-and-pop stores, and sturdy brick homes. Nearly 200 photographs from libraries, personal scrapbooks, and museums provide the evidence. Some notable people who walked the streets of Pilsen include Anton Cermak, Amalia Mendoza, George Halas, Cesar Chavez, Judy Barr Topinka, and Stuart Dybek. Today the Pilsen schools are nurturing another generation of artists, athletes, and activists., For nearly 150 years, Pilsen has been a port of entry for thousands of immigrants.

- y***z (522)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThank you so much. Just what I needed. As described excellent value and packed well.
- e***n (446)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letztes JahrBestätigter KaufItem as described. Super fast shipment and great communication. The shipping was a lite high, but it arrived unbroken and in great condition, so I shouldn't complain. I’m 60, and dont smoke. But, this ashtray is an identical copy of one that my grandparents had at their old farm in when I was a kid. They got it on a vacation trip to Florida when my mom and Aunt were preteens back in the 50’s. No one knows where the original ever wound up. But, this will help make a great surrogate.Polar Bear Family Ceramic Ashtray (Nr. 144877911055)
