From A Shepard to a Tenured Professor: Defying the Odds

This book will take my readers through four continents and several cultures and languages I have experienced. Some of these countries are very different from each other. I could say this book has something for different readers. My readers in the northern hemisphere will be introduced to the fascinating history of Eritrea and Ethiopia. For those who appreciate different cultures, there is enough material about the cultures and customs practiced in certain parts of Africa and the Caribbean. Yet for educators I trained in Africa, the United States of America, and the Caribbean, a section discusses how to train teachers. Above all, the message I want to leave with everyone who reads this book is to believe that anything is possible if you are with it and think there is more than one way to pursue life.
