Set in the border of the United States and Mexico and delightfully told, this extraordinary story of survival is about Vitto Puentelarra and his struggle in search of the American Dream. But is it true that the American Dream really exists? Or it may be found somewhere else? But then, aren't we all searching for the same. The US is a country of immigrants, but maybe is not for everyone, including us, its citizens, as many have learned in their own search to make a reality of their dreams. Originally written in Spanish and then translated by the author, this work is a novel based on the experiences of many immigrants. Wonderfully written while combining the drama and humor of the characters, De Murguia tells the story of Vittorio Puentelarra, a middle class immigrant from Mexico, and what meant for him and many others the elusive reality of the American Dream.

WHEN A FAMILY REACHES FOR THE AMERICAN DREAM “Though fashioned as a memoir, Jon Masters has actually written a compelling guide in the vein of Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. What haunted (and inspired) Masters may seem specific, but the themes are universal—ethnic self-consciousness, dark family secrets, difficult parent-child relationships—and how one moves beyond them into that elusive American Dream. Masters’ no-nonsense life-lessons and evolving priorities are conveyed at a page turning pace. He is a riveting storyteller, a mentor for everyone who wants to make it or has children they hope will reach for the sky.” —Dr. Ron Taffel, internationally recognized therapist, author and educator on family-life issues “Jon Masters’ memoir, Fear, Fathers and Family, aligns one man’s life along the crooked paths of history and family, anti-Semitism and secrets. Charged with preserving the secret of his Jewishness as a child, and learning to embrace the power of truth as a man, Masters models how to navigate the complexities of love and identity to become the father, and the man, he can proudly show the world.” —Gail Mellow, President of LaGuardia Community College “Jon Masters’ Fear, Fathers and Family is a vivid and candid portrait of a classic father-son conflict. The dominating father in Mr. Masters’ engaging memoir challenges his son’s as well as his family’s identity by demanding assimilation as a secret and unchallenged commitment. As Mr. Masters narrates his passage from repressed Jew to enrolled Episcopalian, he treats his readers to an insightful evaluation of the social as well as spiritual values that plagued so many families of immigrants in mid-twentieth century U.S.A. Fear, Fathers and Family achieves that rarity among intimate memoirs—a painful personal confession that dramatizes an aspect of our social history.” —Sidney Offit, author of novels and two memoirs, conducts writing workshops at The New School and Hunter College

I've never read a book from cover to cover, but I've never been short on stories. This book is a collection of my own stories about growing up in communist Cuba and how I escaped Cuba in search of the American dream. Every day has been a gift, because I was never going to be born. My family was poor, and a sixth child (me) was going to be more of a financial burden. Lucky for me the scheduled abortion didn't take place. Life in Cuba was very hard. We had very little money and everything was controlled by the government. My life started in a one-room house with eight of us sharing the space and very little food on the table. As I grew older, I knew I had to leave Cuba to seek opportunities to fulfill my dream of becoming a millionaire. I wanted to reach the land of opportunity...The United States of America. I never knew how hard it was going to be to fulfill that "dream". I'm not sure how much of my desire to succeed, resourcefulness & entrepreneurship comes from growing up in Cuba and how much is the personality I was born with.Read my story and experience the challenges of growing up in Cuba, the ups & downs of planning & executing my escape and finally see how I reached the land of opportunity. As you read my story, it's important to know that I've had a hard life, but I've never had a bad day!

From Liberty to Magnolia: In Search of the American Dream vividly recounts the journey of an African-American woman from rural, segregated Mississippi through academia, corporate America, and politics. It is the story of how she triumphed even when, more often than not, the ugly realities of racism and sexism tried to deter her. She says, "If it were not for God, my Creator, who endowed me, empowered me, and who has sustained me during this journey, nothing would have been possible. I give thanks every day, often multiple times a day, for the little things as well as those that are significant." This book tells the broader story, too, of how her life epitomizes what Equal Rights have meant and have not meant for blacks and women as she has lived through their maturation during the last 50 years. What better moment than today to look deeply at the life of a woman who prepared herself and worked tirelessly to achieve her goals because she believed in the promise that all citizens have a chance at achieving the American Dream? See how her faith in God helped her achieve her purpose in life. From Liberty to Magnolia shows readers, especially aspiring women and minorities how to navigate and ultimately embrace the challenges at every major crossroads and be triumphant, relying on God every step of the way. A Discussion Guide is included for use by book clubs, classes, and group forums. "An engrossing personal tale." - Kirkus Review In her book, enhanced by family photos, Ellis sets her personal battles within the context of the civil rights and feminist movements, both of which helped fuel her determination. She recounts stories of sexual harassment that are especially relevant in today's #MeToo environment. And the early sections offer striking portraits of segregation, as she recounts cross burnings in front of her house and the murder of a friend's father who was involved in voter registration....an engrossing personal tale.... this account offers an important historical perspective on two continuing struggles.
