Introduzione "Questo primo volume di Gente Italiana in California indipendente da ogni interesse che non sia quello collettivo, vuole inqua-drarsi, coraggiosamente e seriamente nella opera di valorizzazione dell'anima gloriosissima dell'emigrato nostro, che non conosce nessun confine e nessuna sosta alla fatica insonne ed l passo accelerato da velite conquistatore che in lui romanamente si rinnova. Contro quest'opera, che non improvvisa ma costruisce con progressione saggia e cauta, stanno la scarse conoscenza che l'Italia e gli Italiani rimasti attaccati alle sponde patrie, hanno del popolo italiano d'oltre oceano che, in rivoluzione magnifica, ha cambiate le vesti del lavoratore manuale, di servo dello straniero, per divenire a sua volta padrone delle sue ricchezze e del suo destino.
