Blinded by the Bling?? by David Milne

This short book describes the facts relating to the Trump Organisation's planned housing development at Menie, on the Aberdeenshire coast, in Scotland. It points out some of the unusual treatment that appears to have been given to this applicant who is intending to construct a development including four tower blocks of condominiums, five hundred houses, thirty six golf villas and a hotel, as well as a golf course or two, in one of the most scenically beautiful parts of Scotland. As part of the process irrevocable damage would be done to a four thousand year old dune system that is probably unique in the UK and is supposed to be protected. This book is as fair and impartial as it can be whilst being written by someone who is actually trying to correct the Public Relations story that it's all about golf.
