| Summary |
The nations of South America share a continent, if not all of the same cultural traditions. Yet they are bound by a variety of connections, including a long history of native traditions mixing with those brought by European colonialism. When people from South America emigrate, they carry those traditions with them. Inside, see how food, family, and dining have helped cement the bonds between immigrants and their homelands, and how those traditions have had an impact on new places. -- Provided by publisher. |
