This review is from: Don Camillo and His Flock (Hardcover)

This second of Giovanni Guareschi's "Don Camillo" books delivers more humorous tales featuring the big, outspoken priest and his opposite number in the Communist camp. With the Cold War in full swing, and both America and Russia sending supplies and representatives in an effort to win the people's allegiance, it's up to Don Camillo and his arch-rival Mayor Peppone to negotiate a particularly Italian brand of peace for their little village.

Whether their aim is to help get a local boy his big break in show business, to defend a thoroughbred dog from a cruel master, or to insure that no one in the Little World goes hungry when it can be prevented, this team proves that sometimes there's no friend like a good enemy.
