Chiappelli: An American Name (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781643885667)

Chiappelli is the name of a family that originated in an Etruscan culture, survived one thousand years of Roman rule, and provided a storied presence within an Italian region for another thousand years before emerging as an American saga. This is the story of Alfonso Chiappelli and his service in World War I. Certainly it is a story that can be replicated in every American household with modest variation. It is a tale of becoming an American.
