Viareggio Carnival 2010 Hundred Years of Casinos


On December 5, 2009 at the headquarters of the APT Versilia we finally presented volume Viareggio Hundred Years of Casinos, which I really wanted. The book, c urate from Vasco and Ferretti Gabriella Pasquali has a historical and Casino is the story of nineteenth-Viareggio, inserted into the history of the city, crucible of the culture period.

The book also deals with the history of gambling and is accompanied by a series of beautiful photos and vintage postcards, mostly from the personal collection of the undersigned. The book was sponsored by the Town Council and had a good success.

The publication, published for the kind of Tipografia Still Viareggio, is on sale in major bookstores and newsstands in the city. It may also be required to the editor, the mail info@graficheancora.it or directly to the undersigned through this blog.
For orders made on the blog I will be happy to enjoy a discount on cover price, set at € 18.00.
From these pages I intend to publicly thank the authors, Mario (editor) for his enormous patience, the City Administration, the Versilia Host Lions , Professor Louis Geirut , all friends who supported me in ' company and I have provided pictures and postcards, including Franco Anichini, George and Julius Pollesch of Light. I also thank Paolo Fornaciari
of Center Documentary History of the City, Virgil Contrucci, who provided valuable documentation on the Casino of Bagni di Lucca.

A special thanks to the media, both paper and online, always attentive to the cultural life of the city, without fail, and even in this case, they find a small space. Their collaboration is crucial to promote any initiative.

A list of friends sites, the front page.

Last but not least my friend Paolo Giovannetti, secretary-treasurer of the Circle Puccini and my brother Osvaldo: I'm the one who help me to put into practice the ideas without their precious contibuto I could not realize them.

I invite you to read this viareggini our publication: it is another little piece that helps to reconstruct the history of that precious diadem that is our town: it has called the Mayor in his presentation speech to the book.
