Under a Lion Sun: Chilhood Days of Joy and Sorrow in Old Calabria

Join the author on a journey back through time to his beloved town in Calabria, in Southern Italy. Accompany him back to the fifties and the sixties, as he was growing up in a little-known but unforgettable location. The author will also dissect and expose beliefs, customs and traits which both ennoble and limit a very energetic and intelligent people. This book is especially of interest to people whose roots are in Calabria, Italy. Anyone whose interest is anthropology will find this work very enlightening as well. (A collection of Calabrian proverbs have been added. They have been translated into English.)
