Description
Nina Kanyer talks about immigrating with her family from Italy to Roslyn, Washington. She talks about cultural traditions, holidays, lodges, recreation, and coal mining in Roslyn.
The cover image shows crowds gathering on wooden sidewalks during the summer of 1899 in Roslyn, Washington, for the annual lodge parade. The image looks north up Idaho Avenue toward the towering Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. The various lodges prepared to march through the streets carrying flags and musical instruments. Hundreds of people posed for the photographer, who was high above the street.
