The author lives in Utah, his last name is Pocarro or Paccarro, and i think the name of the book might be The Potesta Family, does anyone know where I could look for this book?

The Family History Library in Salt Lake City has the book. It's called "Title From Italy to America, the Potesta family, part 1" by Robert Ralph Porcaro. It was published Orem, Utah : R.R. Porcaro, 1991.
Since it was self-published and probably had very limited copies, it's going to be pretty difficult to find one. Your best bet may be to contact the author to see if he has any left. I think I located his address by googling his first and last name and adding 'ut' (for utah). Give it a try. If it's not him, it's probably someone who knows him and can forward the inquiry.
Good luck!

You may want to try the online Utah State University catalog or contact the library directly. A good place to start in such sleuthing may be university libraries in the state where the author resides.

Also try Alibris and other book selling sites; even try Ebay rare & collectible books.
You may have to spend some time searching, so good luck
