In this fascinating true story, Rich Locaparra describes what it's like when a third-generation entrepreneur tries to fight against systemic corruption. When the rules change, people can get hurt. In moveis and fiction books, people rise above impossible odds on the hero's journey. But real life is different. How would you react when the democratic process breaks down, threatening your livelihood and your family? In the Governor's Hometown, Rich Locaparra describes what can happen to anyone when corruption becomes the rule in business and in politics. |
