Barry Estabrook, author of Tomatoland praises this book: 




 "Poignant, gut-wrenching, and real, this book should be required reading for everyone who eats."

In this book, author Dale Slongwhite asks the question: "But what about the people, the farmworkers who suffered along with Lake Apopka  as decades of pesticides were showered on them and mixed with the soil where they harvested the vegetables and fruits?"  
"What about the farmworkers?!"
 
Millions of dollar paid to farmers and more millions spent on the continuing recovery program for Lake Apopka, but what about the farmworkers?
