The Green Palmers Chronicle by Jon Huer

The Green Palmers Chronicle by Jon Huer

This is a story of evil that plays an integral role in a small town's transformation from a peaceful place to a terrifyingly selfish and corrupt town, only to be saved by the courage and honesty of a boy, Michael Brown, who draws his strength from the motto Liberty and Justice for All. The town is saved from the Green Palm Way of Life by the young hero, but the shadow of evil lingers on in the reader's mind long after the story is over. The town's transformation is an allegorical tale of how America itself has lost its innocence as viewed by young Mikey who, along with the help of some of the town's people who refuse to succumb to the Green Palm Way, stands by the notions of liberty and justice for all and resists the encroaching forces of human nature that threatens the very foundations of humanity and American ideals.

Jon Huer is Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland University College. He has written over a dozen books of social criticism in the tradition of Thorstein Veblen and C. Wright Mills. His books include The Wages of Sin, Tenure for Socrates, Call from the Cave, American Paradise whose Arabic Language Edition has just been released, and The Dead End, which TIME called an important and often brilliant book. His website, jonhuer.com, offers a picture book entitled Our Savage Nation which combines words and images.
