I just discovered that my 2003 memoir, Blind Spots, is now
available as an
e-book. Because the original publisher pulled it from their catalogue after
receiving a threatening phone call from someone named in the book, I did
not expect the first edition to resurface, but it apparently has.
(In response to its removal, immediately following the first press review
in 2003, I opted in 2005 to self-publish a
second edition elsewhere.)
Admittedly,
the memoir would benefit from an index, which it does not include, but
it nevertheless describes how the building and real estate industries in Washington state
covertly conspired to undermine environmental and treaty protections by
funding property rights field agents who organized anti-environmental,
anti-Indian vigilantes to intimidate the industries' political
opponents. While not, perhaps, an elegant account of the seven-year
battle, it is at least accurate and based on eyewitness testimony and evidence collected from
public records.
