For Salustiano Gamil, life was repetitive but interesting. The days were like checkers of black and white. In The Legacy of Yanoy, author N. Dawes recapitulates the life of Salustiano Yanoy Gamil, the patriarch of her family. The story chronicles his legacy and the creation of a large family. It originates in the Philippines with Yanoys birth in June 1907. It continues through to his marriage to sixteen-year-old Fely Olguera in 1936 and the births of their children and their childrens children. It recounts his humble work as a poor tax man, the ups and downs of life in the Philippineswhere he was surrounded by co-workers who exuded moneyhis eventual immigration to Canada, and his death. The Legacy of Yanoy chronicles more than a lifes worth of events. It communicates the true character of Yanoy, a disciplined man who followed his religion, counted his blessings, and practiced honesty and sensible frugalitya man who inspired generations of his descendants.
