Review blurb~
"Cathie Pelletier draws readers back to the beloved town of Mattagash, a seemingly quiet New England outpost in Maine. Yet Mattagash is anything but tranquil. While its citizens bicker publicly over small-town theft or their neighbors' offensive mailboxes, they privately struggle through deeper life issues: scandal, loss, failed ambitions, and the scars of war."

Publisher~After eighteen years in the United States Senate, and a total of forty years in Congress and the Maine legislature, Republican Senator Olympia Snowe announced that she would not seek a fourth term to the U.S. Senate. The public understood why: the two parties are so polarized they will not look for a solution between extremes, even when it’s clear that their own side cannot prevail. Congress’s approval-ratings have sunk to historic lows. The 112thCongress passed a record-low number of laws; the Senate failed to pass a budget in three consecutive years; the U.S. debt rating was lowered for the first time in our history—all because lawmakers could not work together.
In Fighting for Common Ground, the former Senator’s timely call to action, she asks: How did we get here? How did the world’s greatest legislative body devolve into partisanship and inaction? And how can we citizens influence our representatives to govern effectively once again?
