Judge Anthony Alaimo's life is a metaphor for quintessential American values: courage, hard work, patriotism, compassion. This biography does not dwell in the realm of metaphorical; it plunges us into the day-to-day life of an immigrant family struggling in the depths of the Depression to become Americans, of an immigrant son putting his every dream on hold to pursue a greater passion: love of country. It carries us into the madness of air warfare, the horror of a screaming crash into the frigid North Sea, the terrible realization and burden of living with the knowledge that you survived when everyone else died. The son of illiterate, but deeply religious Sicilian immigrants, US District Court Judge Anthony Alaimo shined shoes and cut hair in Jamestown, New York, to pay for his college education. (He was the Golden Gloves boxer attending the quiet Methodist College.) As a POW, he participated in the world-famous Great Escape, and later broke out on his own, making his way through German lines into Switzerland. A mother's love, religious faith, and ferocious patriotism transform an impoverished immigrant boy into one of the Greatest Generation heroes. This book takes us inside the incandescent life and tumultuous times of Judge Anthony Alaimo, WWII bomber pilot, POW, and indomitable escape artist, whose fidelity to the law is equaled by his compassion and outrage at injustice.Binding Type: Hardcover

Smells amazing!
Color: 03# Gold
Love this! Soft glow with sunscreen and the fragrance and feel of the oil is delightful! Have not had it drip sunscreen and sweat into my eyes like so many sunscreens. It stays on and soaks in so nicely.

Surprisingly good
Color: 02# Rose Gold
This actually works, which I was surprised by as it's an oil. I was out in the sun for 3 hours and didn't burn. Shake well before use, of course. The micro glitter leaves the most gorgeous glow to the skin that shimers so lusciously in the sunlight. My only complaint is that it's a little sticky when it dries down, but that won't stop me from using it.

Understated and pl
Color: 03# Gold
The sparkle effect is pretty muted and understated, which I appreciate. No adverse skin reaction and I have sensitive skin. I’m yet to test it in the sun
