In the spring on 2022, the UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH – Hillman Library ordered a signed copy of the VANISHING CUBA Silver Edition. Two months later, the curator for the Special Collections department ordered the Reserve Edition.

How exciting to know that the book was so well received that a second copy – the collectors “Reserve Edition” was added to the Hillman Library. 

Hillman Library is the largest and most extensive library and the center of administration for the University Library System (ULS) of the University of Pittsburgh. Hillman serves as the flagship of the University Library System, with approximately 7.1 million volumes. The University of Pittsburgh was established in 1787, just 11 years after the founding of the United States of America. 

VANISHING CUBA CHRONICLES – PRINTING IN ITALY

VANISHING CUBA CHRONICLES – PRINTING IN ITALY

On September 28, 2021, I departed New York for Milan, Italy, to oversee the printing and production of my long-awaited Vanishing Cuba book. I was headed to my printer, Longo AG, in Bolzano, Italy. My man at Longo, Giuseppe, picked me up at the airport, and we began our four-hour journey across Northern Italy. Giuseppe had been working with me for two years on this project, and he knew exactly what I was looking to achieve. After multiple espressos stops along the Autostrade, we arrived at Longo in the late afternoon. The espresso stops were a good indication of what was to come. Non-stop espresso, all day, every day, for the next two weeks!
