The Philly Crew (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781515458456)

Lessons sometimes educate both the student and the teacher and, as Peter learns English, Sarah-his tutor-learns about love. When his lessons end, they can finally be two people together. However, given Peter's immigrant background, nearly everyone else in their lives has difficulty accepting their relationship. And the Donatello brothers' current employment on the wrong side of the law, circumventing Prohibition, doesn't help matters.

As the world changes, can people look deeper than accent and religion? Can Peter and Sarah be accepted as a couple? Will the Donatellos survive?

Reminiscent of John Jakes' Bicentennial series, The New Americans by Tony and Ty Drago is a wonderfully moving saga. The genesis of the story is itself a tale: in his final weeks, Tony Drago tape-recorded what his son Ty thought were simple reminiscences. It was only in the years following Tony's death, after Ty became an established novelist, that he listened to the tapes and realized his father had left him, not a family history, but rather an emotional novel of immigration, rebirth, and growth. Milherst Publishing is honored to bring this story to the world.
