My father's research culminated in the printing of a book, which
not only summarized his genealogical research, but provided rememberances
of growing up in Brooklyn in the early part of the 20th Century, his courtship
and marriage to my mother, and the years leading up to his genealogical
interest. He wrote, typed and edited this work and my brother, Nick
designed the dust cover. He made over 100 copies at his own expense
and distributed copies to the family. It truly provides a treasure
trove of information on his life and his ancestors.

I especially think that the cover design by my brother is ingenious,
as it depicts an American turning the page of his life back to discover
his Italian ancestors, by turning back the American flag to show the flag
of Italy.
