When author Dominic Charles Okero was growing up in Kenya, he had heard the United States was a land of opportunities. In Quest of the American Dream, Okero shares the excitement, joys, anxieties, disappointments, challenges, and hopes he experienced as he navigated a country and culture different from his native land. He discusses details about his arrival in the country, the introduction to the roadways and transportation, food choices, work etiquette and norms, and adapting to a colder climate. Okero narrates how he worked hard to create a new chapter of success in the United States, and he tells about the lessons he learned on his journey. Quest of the American Dream serves as an example to others communicating anything is possible when one dreams, sets goals, and faces challenges head on. In his narration, he intends to give hope to those in pursuit of the American dream. The beginnings are tough but through persistence and focus success becomes the result.
