HARVEST OF TEARS is a story of the lives of migrant farm workers in the cotton fields and labor camps of Corcoran, California. The reasons for writing this book are threefold; first, the author wanted to illustrate the difficulties of living in the labor camps of the San Joaquin Valley in the 1950s; secondly, the author wanted the reader to know that despite hardships, people can overcome poverty, intolerance and indifference, and they can still succeed. The third reason is to show that hard work during the formative years is not a bad thing, and that it builds character and instills the work ethic in the person, regardless of your social status or ethnicity.
