This is the story of the formative years of Cesare. Born in the small town of Roccascalegna, in the Abruzzi region of Italy, Cesare grew up in these splendid mountains close to the sea. His early life was carefree, playing and being schooled amidst these small towns. At the tender age of eight World War II erupted and he was suddenly thrown into the conflict! After the great war, he moved to the regal city of Rome to build his career, barely surviving on a post-war income, then succeeding to establish himself as one of the more preeminent tailors of Rome. At the peak of his young career, he was drafted into the army, losing all of his clients, only to rebuild it amongst the elite officers of the Italian military! Then, when he thought he knew where his life was headed, he was struck by a great love for Italia, who lived in Canada. His love and wanderlust overtook him and, once again, he uprooted himself for a new adventure!
