Review "It's obvious from your book that you treat Italians con amore, so that makes you an honorary Italian." -- Sheriff Joe Arpaio, 1998"Mabel Leo's book is a great idea. I wish I had written it!" -- Entertainer Frankie Laine, 1998"My thanks to you for taking the time to do this book on behalf of Italian-Americans." -- Senator Dennis DeConcini, 1998 Product Description Like most people, I learned about Italians from the media. When I married an Italian-American I discovered a nationality of beautiful people I didn't know existed. I hope this book will dispel the common belief that all Italians are in "The Mob". The book contains 35 personal stories (with photos)of being an Italian in the United States. Here is the true Italian culture. About the Author Born in Sailor Springs, Illinois, pop. 150, and later moving to Chicago, Leo describes herself as a small town girl from the big city. Her writing career began as a columnist for a Florida newspaper. Now living in Phoenix, AZ she concentrates on writing books and an occasional newspaper article.
