Jose R. Rivera Fierro

Mr. Fierro's autobiography is a true inspiration to young people growing up poor and disadvantaged in one of the wealthiest countries in the world.

 

Using his natural skill as a writer he paints a picture of struggle, heart-ache and survival in some of the roughest parts of the United States.

 

He also paints a picture of a strong, yet compassionate man who manages to maintain his humanity and who's not only survived but beaten incredible odds.
