"Lee's Trailer Park" is a captivating memoir of my early years as a child, raised by a single mother in an impoverished environment, at a time when both of those characteristics were generally frowned upon by society. While it is a true-life story of the many obstacles that confronted me throughout my childhood and adolescent years . it reads like a novel. This book is about a journey that began when my Mom put me under her arm and walked out on my Dad when I was only 4 years old. After being boarded out on a farm, while she tried to find work and put together a plan for us, we eventually reunited and began the trek north to Boston and "Lee's Trailer Park." Our first "home" was a trailer that was 21-feet long and 8-feet wide, with no toilet, refrigerator or hot water. My Mom, her sister (my Aunt) and I would live in that trailer together. That meager beginning would somehow lead me to a life of success in business as well as a career as a motivational speaker and strategic planning consultant to business and industry .
a life that I now share with my wonderful wife in a much larger "home" overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Honolulu, Hawaii. "Lee's Trailer Park" is a testimony to Napoleon Hill's famous quote, "Out of every adversity springs a seed of an equivalent or greater benefit." As long as we never quit; as long as we get up one more time than we are knocked down; as long as we are willing to overcome any and all obstacles that stand in our way, then we can achieve whatever goals and objectives that we set for ourselves in our lives. Based on our focus groups, this is a book that will appeal to Millennials and Baby Boomers alike.
