Ricky

Before he was a businessman, senator, and governor, Ricardo J. Bordallo was simply “Ricky,” a young CHamoru man from Guam, the island he loved. The first volume of a two-part series, Ricky: A Life Worth Sharing is Bordallo’s account of his early life, as told to his cousin C. Sablan Gault. From an idyllic village childhood to the horrors of the occupation during WWII and the shifting cultural and political landscape of an island transformed in the aftermath of war, Ricky explores the formative experiences of one of Guam’s most well-known public figures.
