ISBN: 9780940168374.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom his \"Garlic Hill\" neighborhood in Monterey, young \"Petru\" Cutino sees a rough and ready waterfront community far different from that found today, a commercial fishing community in which the Old World traditions of its Sicilian immigrants dictate all aspects of a young mans life. The era chronicled is 1938 to 1951. Cannery Row is in its heyday and Alvarado Street is a salty amalgam of marine supply stores, Mexican bars, pool halls, and tiny Mom-And-Pop diners. Cutinos riotous stories, often told in \"Old Time\" Sicilian, will return you to a place, and a people, you thought existed only in Steinbeck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brand: Central Coast Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45113589366837,"sku":"ByrdShop_0940168375","price":60.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780940168374_cb4c626d-aabf-470b-907a-250efb478faf.jpg?v=1781319543","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/monterey-a-view-from-garlic-hill-9780940168374","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
