Synopsis
Quincy, Washington, had been a sleepy northwestern farming town until its rest is disturbed by a shocking secret beneath its once-fertile fields: chemical manufacturers are disposing of leftover toxic waste by selling it to unsuspecting farmers as fertilizer. The tainted fertilizer -- containing arsenic and cadmium, lead and dioxins-is believed to be destroying crops, sickening animals, and endangering the nation's food supply. And owing to a gaping regulatory loophole, it is completely legal. Up against the secrecy and greed of powerful corporations, a local lifelong tomboy and mother of four will make an impassioned stand. Patty Martin begins a fateful journey that will lead to her election as mayor, but also invite the resentment of most of her neighbors for daring to confront the industry that has been Quincy's lifeblood. Martin is joined by a small number of brave farmers who bring ingenuity, outrage, and an investigative reporter to the fight against seemingly insurmountable odds to expose the truth. They learn that toxic waste is turned into fertilizer around the world, spread on food-growing land, absorbed by plants, and, ultimately, consumed by all of us. Duff Wilson, whose Seattle Times series on this story was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, here provides the definitive account of a new and alarming environmental scandal. Fateful Harvest is a gripping study of corruption and courage, of recklessness and reckoning. It is a story that speaks to the greatest fears -- and ultimate hope -- in us all.

- *****- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaGreat chrome railroad post card as described. Card arrived well packaged & arrived @ the speed of light from the west coast to the east coast. The selling price along with free shipping was an incredible value. EXCELLENT seller to buy from!
- *****- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaAwesome seller. Books arrived faster than I expected. The books were packaged very well and are in great condition. The seller's description of the books was right on the mark. The books were reasonable priced and I also appreciated the seller telling me where he got them from. I'm very happy and would definitely buy off this seller again.
- *****- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI did not get the item, the Post Office misplaced or lost it. But since they lied and said that the item was "Delivered/Picked Up" NOT, there is really nothing I can do about it, and it is not the Seller's fault. He did his part, USPS, as usual, did not - and no surprise there at all. I won't be buying from eBay indefinitely because buyers get short shrift here. Terrible experience all in all, and I have zero recourse.Respuesta de apogee-perigee- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor apogee-perigee.- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor apogee-perigee.Bizarre Case. I requested search but USPS says that buyer picked up item at the post office so case is closed. Yet buyer states he/she never received item. What the heck ..?? I can not claim insurance as it shows delivered. Will keep trying
