Journey to a New Land, An Oral History of Elda Del Bino Willitts - Book Shop Level M

Paperback Elda Del Bino Willitts came to America in 1916 when she was 7yrs old. much of what happened to Elda at that time also happened to millions of other immigrants who came to America many years ago. Journey to a New Land tells the true story of Elda's life as she told it to me many years later when I interviewed her for the Ellis Island Oral History Project. This project was started for the purpose of recording the stories of people such as Elda so that their memories and experiences will be preserved for future generations. It is a Joy to see this moving and universal story told so beautifully in this delightful book. - Paul E. Sigrist Jr.
