      WILLIAM MALTESE MOMENT #1

      The Book Conceived

      This book is primarily written from the first-person perspective of my niece, Adrienne Z. Milligan, because it’s mainly the ongoing story of her concentrated efforts to find the cause of, and instigate the elimination of, the initially mysterious source of health problems that were visited upon her family.

      For many years, I existed on the sidelines, merely watching and being impressed by her efforts to cope, discover the culprit (gluten), and convert her family into living a completely Gluten-Free Way. In the end, of course, as a long-time published author, I couldn’t help but recognize the obvious value her experiences might have for others who face similar health problems and seemingly insurmountable dietary roadblocks, sometimes without even a clue. With that incentive in mind, I approached my niece about the possibility for this collaborative effort.
