Book Four of Land of the Free, Home of the Brave completes the saga of the DeVito family in America and concerns the great-grandson of the stonemason who originally emigrated from Italy to the United States in 1898. Jay Marks lives in San Diego, California and works as a journalist for the San Diego Sun. The newspaper is flying him over to Europe to cover the biggest earthquake to hit Southern Italy in over a hundred years. In Rome, Jay runs into Howard Connors, a cameraman and long-time friend. In Naples, Jay and Howard meet Laura LaBianca, a nurse working with the Red Cross relief action. Laura LaBianca is the only daughter of a research scientist in the United States at Harvard whose theories can trace past and future historical trends in Western civilization. During the time that Jay is in Italy, America takes a turn for the worse under the Collier Administration and begins veering towards becoming a totalitarian nation with the institution of a national identity system. What Jay, Howard, and Laura decide to do about the country they love is the exciting conclusion to Land of the Free, Home of the Brave.
