Ruth Rappini (EMBA) published her first book, Vittorio’s Journey: An Italian Immigrant’s Story in October 2013. The book details the true story of her father, from boyhood in Bologna during the ‘30s to immigration to Canada in the ‘50s after surviving a sinking submarine and imprisonment in Allied POW camps in Britain and the U.S. during the ‘40s. Vittorio’s Journey fits into the broader historical record of all those who fought, suffered, or perished on both sides during this tragic period of modern history.
