Synopsis
Jack Casserly lived in Italy for seven years as Rome bureau chief of International News Service, Hearst News Service, and ABC News. In his topsy-turvy love affair with Italy, he reported many historic events, some major journalistic coups, and a parade of fascinating characters. In these remembrances, Casserly looks at an Italy of more innocent times: the intricacies of daily Roman life - from public transportation, water company, and espresso bar strikes to politics, Italian style, and the wild encounters of his wife and family.
