During the last three years of his life, Modesto E. Ellano, Jr.
(Mo) wrote this inspiring story of a troubled youth who eventually
became a productive and fulfilled man as a university professor,
instructing others in the subject and ethics of social work.
Growing up in the Depression at a time when Filipinos and other
ethnic groups were often oppressed, he found his way without his
blood family, educating himself on the streets of the Logan Heights
barrio. Mo wrote this book for others who may also want to make a
connection with their past, when the time is right for them. They
will see how he came to know himself and his heritage through
images from the past presented in this work derived from his
experiences, studies and observations. This book provides a study
of the history of life during the depression, the cultural world of
Filipinos in the 20th century U.S., the world of farm labor, and
development of cultural identity. It can be read as a memoir and is
appropriate for cultural and historical studies learning. This book
will motivate young people to dig deep to find their own inner
strength, to make wiser choices about with whom they keep company,
and how they spend their idle hours, to reach for the top rung of
the ladder, even if they are the only ones to believe they can get
there.
