Ivan(O)I wonder if your "Blaggatori" would be interested in a new book coming out on June 2. The name is "LIME KILN LEGACIES"and tells the story of the Lime Industry in Santa Cruz County and the North Coast when Davenport was only a sparkle in the eyes of Italians Respini, Morelli, Fillipini and Moretti.
