Review of 'Far from the church bells' on 'Goodreads'

This is my dad's book, so I am biased. It's an ethnographic study of land settlement patterns around an unusual town in the Italian province of Puglia. Dry reading on a topic of narrow interest. But I lived the writing of this book and that was an adventure that changed all of our lives.
