In July 1915, Vincenzo D’Aquila was one of 1,500 Italian-Americans to set sail for Italy on the San Guglielmo in order to join the Italian military in World War I. Bodyguard Unseen is his true story of “war and folly” dedicated to all his “buddies of all nations who made the supreme sacrifice.” This is the first time in over 85 years that his story will be made available to the public, and will be published for the first time in paperback and eBook formats.
