About The Book:

~ 1943 ~
WAR-TORN SICILY:

A young widow, barely 26, her once vibrant spirit weighed down by the burden of three fatherless children, struggling to wash clothes in an old tub.  She is yet another soul trying to endure a three-year war that has engulfed the world.  The fountain, her only local water source, is now shut off.  With no other choice, she sends her eldest, a mere six years old, to fetch water from a distant fountain, ten blocks away. The boy obeys, running off to help the family find water.  As the child nears the fountain, a distant rumbling is heard, and grows ever louder...
Tanks are coming...

From Sicily to America:

This gripping memoir, penned by Nicolo Di Bartolo, captures the essence of an immigrant's journey from the war-ravaged landscapes of Castellammare del Golfo, Sicily, to the promise of a new beginning in New York. Di Bartolo shares his personal odyssey over more than eight decades, reflecting on survival, love, loss, and the pursuit of the American Dream.
