In this deeply moving memoir, González recounts his remarkable journey from Cuba and his upward track through education in United States. At a time when the fates of millions of refugees and Hispanics in the United States has never been more uncertain, González's story is more important than ever.



Trade Review

A new memoir by Gerardo González, Indiana University School of Education dean emeritus, is a tribute to openness—the kind that happens when a nation welcomes new citizens and a person welcomes new ideas.
