The Bird That Stole Our Innocence

Lulu.com, 2017

(LARGE PRINT EDITION) The fourth book in the Rod Gentry series. Ninety million dollars is at stake in Brevard County, Florida. The "good folks" trying to save a beautiful bird from extinction say that's what it will cost to save it. To stop the bird's habitat from being destroyed by development, buy up the land with tax money, or confiscate it through regulation. Who cares about the little landowners who worked the land for a lifetime? And why should we care about the people who will never come to our state because housing is too expensive? The new Florida resident unashamedly says, "I've got mine! To Hell with the rest of them!", or the one born here who says "We don't have room for any more people!" When did we get to the point of denying to our fellow Americans the opportunity of home ownership that we hold so dear for ourselves? Rod Gentry sets out to find the facts. Is the bird endangered? And where will the ninety million dollars come from? And where will it end up?
