Hi David, I am so excited about your book and have already decided to give it as Xmas gifts to my sisters. Also, I just read your interview in the Portuguese Tribune posted on your website in which you mention that your family is from São Miguel. Do you know which village or town? My family came from São Miguel and settled in Providence and East Providence. My grandmother's name was Ermelinda Leite Barbosa and my great grandmother's name was Rosa Leite Barbosa and her uncle was José Jacintho da Câmara Leite. They were from Maia and Lombinha da Maia.
I wish you a Happy New Year and great success with your new book.
