Description

by Francisco Sabin (Author)

THE ADVENTUROUS LIFE OF PACO, A CUBAN-AMERICAN EXILE As a teenager, Paco enjoyed a thrilling life and many pleasures, including extensive travel, fine cigars, mojitos, women, and gambling. His privileged world was taken away by the Cuban Revolution, which removed a dishonest dictatorship and established an even more tyrannical regime. As wealthy property owners, the Sabins were suddenly ruined and arrived in the U.S. as penniless refugees. This is the story of a young couple whose love conquered numerous obstacles in their struggles to help their parents and relatives. It is also the saga of their families, and how they managed to reinvent themselves despite adversities. Thanks to the opportunities received in America, they were able to survive, integrate, and thrive in their adoptive country in only one generation. The Sabin experience shows that drive, education, and destiny are critical assets on life's voyage. The humor they brought from Cuba helped the family at difficult times and adds spice to this memoir, a legacy to their family.
