Publisher's Synopsis
Reading Mike Cutillo's George Washing Machine is like breathing a refreshing mix of clean Mediterranean and upstate New York air. The book is part history, part travelogue and above all a personal journal wrapped in a witty, clever writing style...--Michael J. Fitzgerald, author of The Devil's Pipeline and other novels....I highly recommend it for anyone with an interest in immigrant family life, values, and customs. George Washing Machine is a significant contribution to U.S. immigration literature.-- Robert E. May, professor emeritus of history at Purdue University ...A great family memoir, this book should also appeal to others interested in Italian culture...-- Donald F. Staffo, long-time, educator, author and a proud Italian-American...Utilizing the keen eyes and deep insights of the award-winning journalist he is, Mike deftly weaves together the saga of his father's life in two worlds. If you wonder at all about America's story, this is it...-- John Erardi, author of "Tony Perez: From Cuba to Cooperstown"
