The View from Stansberry Lookout-the third novel by American lawyer, international arbitrator, and satirist James Gaitis-which was written sixteen years ago but only now has become relevant, is a Canadian-centric cautionary tale now come true. As the Confederation to the north struggles to confront the governmental, social, and environmental collapse of its much larger neighbor, the Republic to the south, the Confederation's Prime Minister slowly implements her three-prong plan to save the Confederation and to either bring the Republic to its senses, or to its knees. An international political eco-dystopian satire, with romantic underpinnings. Elbows Up!
