The book for Italians - and those who wish they were!
Revised bilingual edition has been expanded from 1492 to 1776 fact-filled questions that highlight the endless contributions made by Italians and Italian Americans to western civilization. From Julius Caesar to Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, from Galileo to Sinatra - who says education can't be fun? The “original” Italian cultural compendium.
An epic tale of adventure, romance and heroism, vividly bringing the distant past to life. Set in the 16th century and featuring a young and affable Miguel de Cervantes, the story is about the quest for an enigmatic relic Pope Pius V believes will decide the fate of Christian Europe. Only a brokered alliance forced by the Holy See between Spain and Venice can stop the invincible Ottoman Turks.
