Miguel Hernandez: Mystic is the true story of the author's older half-brother who acted as a father-figure to him, and whose remarkable life brought inspiration, happiness, and even transformation to the many friends he made. Although his formal education ended at the third grade, he possessed a wisdom and connection with his fellow human beings that is too rare. As one who regularly provided safety, and a path to green card status, for illegal immigrants, he also improbably became close friends with members of the Immigration Office. Miguel improved the lives of so many people he came to know during his life, and with this recounting of Miguel's life, his legacy continues even after his passing.
