784 Broadway

In 784 Broadway, author Jim Ring brings to life his immigrant Italian heritage through a delightful retelling of summer visits to his familyâ€™s small greengrocer store in Kingston, New York. When we meet Jim Ring, circa 1950, he is an eight-year-old who, with his brother Dan, canâ€™t wait to surprise his great uncles with the familyâ€™s arrival at the Joseph Garbarino greengrocer store, located at 784 Broadway since 1894. Ringâ€™s stories, rich with humor and wisdom, span nearly three decades and are an impressive chronicle of small-town life in the iconic Hudson Valley, including the family camp near the Ashokan Reservoir in West Hurley and a camp on the Hudson River tributary known as the Rondout Creek. As Ring tells it, these annual visits had a profound role in shaping his character and guiding him from childhood into adulthood, and influencing his career as an FBI agent. A gifted storyteller, Ring brings us unforgettable characters and stories that delight and linger.
