The book expresses ethos of the author’s experiences in the Southwestern United States. Embattled with struggles, antagonists, and challenges, he still was driven with a sense of purpose; in that nothing stops him from pursuing a career in the public sector of education. The book also portrays the vulnerability of professional education and the rewards of exhilaration when students are enthralled with and comprehend the learning process. It discloses examples of what the author implements in the classroom, in order to promote meaningful learning experiences and creative thinking for students. In his perspective on education the author enlivens his concepts by diversifying activities with 'stand-up' humor and unusual but effective classroom protocol. Relevant studies are enhanced by allowing students to apply technical learning. For example, one student brings in a carburetor and explains its function. This allows the teacher to incorporate objectives related to technical science, academics, and as well as social studies. Having spent thirty years in the public arena, equally important is the author’s parental front. Having spent countless hours investing in his son, the impact is rewarding. His son graduates from West Point Military Academy. In his previous book, 'The Sharecropper’s Son,' the exodus from the southeast to the northeast is emphasized. In this account, the author finally settles in the Sonoran Desert in Arizona. This desert has been, and is now, his 'Promised Land.' 3
