Great stories, Great recipes

This book has great stories of Tony and his family. They make the wonderful recipes even more enjoyable. I have tried a good deal of the recipes so far, and found them excellent. This is a great gift!!!

This is the only Italian Cookbook that you will need. Easy to prepare recipes, however this is what we ate in the old days. Easy to make "The Perfect Meatball" Gravey ( sauce ) in half the time. The book is your basic Italian cookbook. If you are Italian or want to be Italian, this book is for you. If you are from Brooklyn or Queens, you will enjoy the very short stories included.

A Perfect Father's Day Gift!!!

I'm a huge Tony Danza fan and watched his talk show faithfully for the two years that it was on. I've been waiting for this book and had pre-ordered it. I was so pleased to receive it pre-pub. I had been exposed to many of these recipes thru Tony's show where he had a cooking segment and can't wait to explore them with my family. The concept of interspersing the recipes with a memoir of the Danza family is a great idea. I love the old family pictures as well as the new ones with little Nicky. I'll cherish this book and actually hope to get an autographed copy soon. Will make the perfect gift for the fathers who like to cook!!! PLACE YOUR ORDERS SOON!!

OH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I am thrilled with this book. I saw some of the food on The View and I have a very good Italian friend that I cook for so I thought I'd try a few things for him. He just looked at me and said "Like my Momma's" that's all, that was enough. Thank you for sharing Tony

The Danzas' Book
