    About the Book

    Edit

    Raised in different Italian cities, Elisa and Gustavo were forced to brave hardships and trauma with the onset of World War II. Hunger, violence, and the Nazi presence tested their families' resolve and will, and highlighted their devotion to each other.

    Following the war, Gustavo, a sergeant in the Italian Air Force, met a kindred spirit in Elisa, a hairdresser in her family salon. Diplomatically navigating the etiquette of the time and place, including Elisa's idiosyncratic, larger-than-life father, the two married and began their adventure together by emigrating to New Jersey.

    Through hard and diligent work--including owning their own business and real estate--Elisa and Gustavo built a happy and enviable life. Today, they enjoy their retirement surrounded by generations of family.

    Their story is an American Story.

When your loved ones read your story, they can practically hear your unique voice narrating, telling all your classic anecdotes and jokes, educating them about your life’s greatest memories, milestones and achievements. Your words are then pulled together with pictures and captions into a beautiful hard or softcover book with a great design.
