I love a good book – especially if it deals with genealogy or being Italian and I’m always looking for something new to read on cold winter nights.  I love them even more if they’re on sale. . BUT it’s even better when I can find one that’s free!!

Yup..you read that correctly. Amazon is now offering the free Kindle edition of Italian Pride: 101 Reasons to Be Proud You’re Italian by Fred Moramarco and Stephen Moramarco available to read immediately upon download. Don’t have a Kindle? No problem. You can purchase a Kindle directly from Amazon or you can download the free Kindle App to read it on any device.[Canadians download here or visit Canadian site].  Or if you prefer a hard copy you can purchase it as well on either site along with hundreds of other books.  Happy Reading!

Our Italian Surnames – By Joseph Guerin Fucilla is available on Google Books.  The section from which I linked it to entitled The Evolution of Italian Surnames concentrates primarily on Northern Italian Surnames.  There are over 7500 surnames and sources listed throughout the 299 page book which makes it an interesting and most comprehensive read.
