A Glimpse of Greatness Melinda Dart

A Glimpse of Greatness captures the amazing experience of a Filipino American who quietly served his family, his country, and four presidents of the United States. As a US Navy personal steward, Irineo Esperancilla experienced firsthand what life was like behind the scenes in the White House, aboard presidential yachts, and at presidential retreats. From secret signals from FDR to a thoughtful gift from Mrs. Eisenhower, this book reveals the untold stories of a Filipino steward and his comrades. It is the glimpse of greatness that was never recorded in the history books about four of the nation's most towering figures.
