Brandon Vallorani, accomplished entrepreneur and founder of Vallorani Estates, believes anyone can build upon humble beginnings and pursue the finer things in life. He recounts his own American Dream success story in his new book, The Wolves and the Mandolin: Celebrating LifesPrivileges In A Harsh World.
The wolves and the mandolin story has been passed down from generation to generation in my family. A great-uncle was stuck in a tree surrounded by wolves. He played his mandolin to pass the time, and the beautiful music calmed the wolves and my great-uncle made it away safely, says Vallorani. This tale reminds us that beauty can be found even in the midst of growling wolves and that even the fiercest wolves can be calmed.
The Wolves and the Mandolin follows the Vallorani familys modest beginnings in Italy, shares legend-worthy stories of their first years in America, and culminates with Brandons success as an entrepreneur.

Much as Luigi stood his ground during battles in Benghazi and Sciara, Brandons perseverance and old world determination has enabled him to maintain his entrepreneurial spirit and succeed while dodging his own bullets in the form of two recessions. This journey is as much about a familys history as it is our nations. - Steven A. Castleton, Recipient of U.S. Army Outstanding Civilian Service Medal

To my loving parents, Ray and Linda Vallorani: Thank you for believing in me and inspiring me to work hard. Thank you for teaching me the value of faith and family. Because of you, I believe anything is possible. To my wife, Jan Vallorani: Thank you for sticking with me through the ups and downs of my entrepreneurial life. To my children, Bethany, Adam, Josiah, Isaac, Charity, Sarah, and Levi: I love you and believe each of you will accomplish great things.
S o quipped the fictional Italian America hitman Pete Clemenza in a notable postassassination sequence famously depicted in Francis Ford Coppolas cinematic adaptation of Mario Puzos The Godfather . Is this just some Hollywood ploy inserted for levity after a brutal murder? Or is there something deeper and necessary happening in this assassins admittedly bentbut still humanheart? Should ones work and life take the time to include small enjoyments... like cannoli?
Brandon Vallorani masterfully demonstrates that despite the inevitable presence of formidable wolves (and our own bent hearts), there must be intentional times devoted to cultivating joy in small thingsthat hard, entrepreneurial work on the one hand, with enjoying good wine, fine cigars, and family on the other hand need not be fierce competitors.
As a man of faith, Vallorani recognizes that life is not just eternal but also must be abundant right now. Its certainly an Italian thing, but really it should also be a human thing stemming from how we were designed, thus it is an indispensable thing. But how? And why does this fuel the spirit of the entrepreneur?
