The Author is leaving for Italy and especially to Ospedaletto d'Alpinolo, the focus of his book, where the town's mayor is honoring Eric Lamet with the town's citizenship.

It promises to be a memorable and most nostalgic day. Many of Eric's friends are going to be there as well as people who lived in the village at the time Eric was there. Eric will discuss the book and the period of internment and as a gift to the town he will perform on March 25 a program of Neapolitan songs.
