My First Trip to America is not a book of fiction, it is a reality experienced by the author at the age of 50. He was so fascinated by it that he decided to write this book to encourage thousands of people around the world to read it. In this fiftieth year, after having reached an international career in the World Health Organization, he made his first trip to America, accompanied by three of his children who went to study in this country. With an autobiographical style, he recalls some of the strong events that marked his life and that show how determination coupled with God's grace ends up making the difference. All the preparation for the trip and the way it unfolded attest to God's intervention that made this dazzling experience possible. It was not the result of mere human effort. This book will surely be useful to anyone who has ambitions in life, to parents who would like to send their children to distant countries, to children who are preparing to go there, to Christians in their attachment to the Lord and to artists as a good source of inspiration.
