Frontispiece, 219 pp. translated by Carol Della Chiesa. Inscribed by the author to his dear friends Frank and Josephine Gulotta. This is a story of thousands of children left fatherless and motherless by the war. The author, the Monsignor Carroll tells how started his first Boy's Town in Italy. Then he founded a girl's town and he went on to start 39 other childcare centers. Frank Gulotta was elected to the State Supreme Court. He was designated for the Appellate Division, Second Department, in 1971 by Gov. Rockefeller and in 1974 was promoted to Presiding Justice. In 1974, targeting corruption and political patronage, Justice Gulotta announced rules preventing law secretaries from holding positions in political organizations; he also stated that he would enforce rules preventing law secretaries from engaging in private practice. A fine copy bound in beige cloth, spine lettering blue, in a near fine unclipped pictorial dust jacket. Very nice.
