Opis

The author emerged from a small, rural district in Jamaica, where at times he attended primary school without shoes, and twice failed the entrance examination to high school. But he has earned five degrees and became President of his Alma Mater - Jamaica's premier multi-disciplinary College. This is a story that needed to be told, and is told in this book. Not for narcissistic ego-stoking, but to inspire other persons, especially those young persons not born into wealth or privileged circumstances. For this reason, at its core this book is really a device, a machine if you will, for motivation. The analogy of a machine is used because a machine exists to do something, and the "something" this book is intended to do is inspire and motivate. This is Volume 1 of the author's 4-Volume Autobiography. It covers his early life, his parents, grandparents, and siblings. It is also a veritable socio-cultural treatise packed with Jamaican "country life" experiences and spicy servings of Jamaican history & culture weaved into the narrative.
