Not in My Castle

By Robert J. Calcagno

Book Overview

Tom Morgan had ambitions of becoming a United States Senator. Having graduated from Maryland University, law school at Harvard University was the next step to achieving his prestigious goal. Tom knew that admission to Harvard would be very completive, thus he felt that becoming a senate aide could greatly enhance his chances for admission. He achieved the position, but at what price?

Tom discovers that the senior senator he works for, along with the President of the United States, received contributions from the top union leader of the American Federated Trucker's Union, effectively selling their souls to the union. As pay back for their contributions, they created a scheme to assist the union. A victim of the scheme, Eric Wagner, a competitor with the union, ultimately was forced to defend himself through an emotional trial. Tom Morgan innocently got involved in the scheme, and learned the tough game of politics, thereby causing him to question his future career.

A Must Read!

This should be required reading for all citizens. Calcagno is right on target with this fine example of the increasing trend of bureaucratic arrogance and their total intoxication with power. He shows how our society has had a defining down of what we will let the government get away with. A terrific read!

Read this book!

Read this book! I sat down with a diet coke to begin NOT IN MY CASTLE until time for dinner. I ignored the time and read until I was weak from hunger; read while I ate dinner; and then continued reading until I had finished the book. You cannot put it down! This story confirms your worse fears about 'big brother' and other powerful groups. It also enforces your best feelings about mankind. I highly recommend this book.
