(PRLeap.com) "Arrivederci-Shalom!," a new book by Dom Rizzi, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.What happens when an Italian-Catholic boy falls in love with both a Jewish girl and the American legal system? In his moving new memoir, "Arrivederci-Shalom! A True Story," retired Appellate Court Justice Dom Rizzi shares an inspiring narrative of cultural bridge-building and a distinguished judicial career.
The book is a "quintessential American story" told in two parts. It first follows Rizzi as he embraces the Jewish culture of his childhood neighborhood and marries his wife, Sema. With her support, he rose from a trial lawyer to a respected Justice of the Illinois Appellate Court. The second half offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the high-stakes appellate cases that defined his career.
This is more than a legal professional's history; it's a story of how love and community shape a life of service.
