A Must Read * Little Pink House * Sex, Drugs, Rock n Roll, the Mob and politics….not your average real estate book
|
Sorry, not from Oprah’s Book Club * Little Pink House is the story of Susette Kelo whose name would become the heading of one of the most notorious US Supreme Court cases of this or the last century.
Kelo v the City of New London has sex, drugs and rock and roll…corrupt Repub governor, stupid liberal local government, LARGE greedy drug company, the Mob and working families who have lived in their homes for generations. She never dreamed her name would go down in history. She raised her sons, worked a farm with her second hisband and worked for her nursing degree. When she purchased her home on the water in New London, CT, she wanted to fix it up and live there for the rest of her life. Instead, she was engaged for years in the local politics of a dying, liberal historic old town that could not get out of its way to attract business to its decaying waterfront. With the assistance of some very good hearted people, a dedicated DC law firm and thousands of volunteer hours, although she lost her battle, she won her war. The book is inspiring for anyone who has taken on Big Government with no hope of winning. Written by Jeff Beneedict, a top investigative journalist, who teaches writing at Southern Virginia University, this book reads like a novel and you must keep reminding yourself that it eally happened to real people….enjoy!! |
