The Columbus Affair: Imperatives for an Italian/American Agenda - by Anthony Julian Tamburri. 2021, Casa Lago Press. "Professor Tamburri discovers how our education of Columbus's mission, accomplishments, and failings translate into our current understandings of Italian and Italian American identity.
The monograph reveals how the history of the moment differs from the interpretation of the past. Professor Tamburri has crafted The Columbus Affair for all audiences. He triumphs demonstrating how Columbus emerges as a complex symbol in a contentious period of American history." —Leslie Wilson, professor of history, Montclair State University; from the preface.
