Description

'When Gertrude Came, I Wasn't Home' is the story of the child of immigrants living in Buffalo, NY. Sickened by a pandemic, he labored in the fields, picking berries and beans. Despite the adversity, he found his way to the American dream, eventually earning his Ph.D. and going on to become a full professor at one of the nation's top public universities. This is the story of Vincent L. Marando - the son of Sicilian immigrants, a polio victim, a competitive swimmer, and - eventually - a successful professor of political science. This is a story that takes place from 1938 to 1952. This is a story of the ways America has dramatically changed, and not changed at all.
