Trials And Tribulations

A first-person account of a Filipino immigrant's life in the U.S., Trials And Tribulations is an honest appraisal and a bird's-eye view of Gabriel D. Umila, who has been there and done that. In the genre of a rags-to-riches story, from the author's poverty-stricken childhood to an eminently respectable career in the U.S. Navy and civilian life, this autobiography is an eye-opener for all who aspire to elevate themselves in life through sheer hard work and perseverance. A beacon that gives shining light to every soul that is lost in the vagaries that fate offers each of us, this volume is a telling example that finally. hope wins.
