{"product_id":"south-norwood-south-norwood-committee-9781531621513","title":"South Norwood","description":"Beginning in the late nineteenth century, immigrants streamed into Norwood, attracted by work at industrial sites such as Morrill Ink Works, Norwood Press, and Bird \u0026amp; Sons. Arriving from Lithuania, Poland, Syria, and Italy, they took up residence in the southernmost section of town, nicknamed \"the Flats.\" Facing prejudice and isolation from the more established community, the area became a self-contained neighborhood characterized by small businesses, ethnic cooperative markets, benevolent associations, and the St. George, St. Peter's, and St. George Orthodox parishes. Today, the immigrant population still thrives, and generations of families keep this melting pot alive with fairs, festivals, and neighbors who truly care about one another.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e South Norwood Committee, Norwood Historical Society, The South Norwood Committee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1531621511\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531621513\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"South Norwood Committee","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44124571599103,"sku":"9781531621513","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_78f051b3-80c6-47a5-be2f-f0588adc3065.jpg?v=1687437568","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/south-norwood-south-norwood-committee-9781531621513","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
