Celia A. Milano was born of Italian heritage. In researching her family history, she reached out to possible family members still living in the Tuscany region of Italy. In Tuscany in July, she shares the fascinating story of her traveling to spend time with cousins. Her method of writing is that of opening her heart and allowing the reader to enter the family circle. Reading this book, one almost feels like they are part of an Italian family. Celia tells her story in an exciting way; you can easily read this book in a single sitting. This book is so well written that you won’t even notice the time passing. While Celia shares regional history, she is not a dull history professor. Her words are fresh and alive. This book is a pure delight to read.
