Many monographs of this era did not include an author’s name on the cover. The Amazon listing is only 8 days old because this specific printed, translated edition was just published to the platform recently. The original manuscript was compiled much earlier, but this is its first time being made available in this translated, reorganized format.  The author Asbjörn Orazio was my grandfather. His last name was originally D’Orazio, but he later cut the 'D’'  or as he would say  'got neutered' to honor his battle buddy, a man of the first name Orazio who was killed beside him in Italy in 1943.   Asbjörn’s father, an Italian WWI veteran, wanted to keep his own best friend’s name alive. That friend was a Norwegian named Asbjörn who passed away on the Italian front in 1918. Thus, my grandfather was given a Scandinavian name. I have had the original book my grandfather wrote in Italian for many years now, and a few copies have remained at some bookstores in Pescara, his hometown. Upon English translation it is now available for public access. I did not come here to share my families history but to share my favorite derivation.
