Recent release "If I Felt Alone" from Page Publishing author Elaine Osborne is a moving memoir detailing the fallout from the 1980-1985 Maki Swamp sewage spills.
ESKO, Minn., June 2, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Elaine Osborne, a native of Minnesota, has completed her new book "If I Felt Alone": a gripping and potent memoir that describes her crusade to seek restorations for the damage resulting from several sewage spills in her area.
Elaine writes, "The official-looking authority figure that stood in observation of the troubled line assured me there was no cause for alarm. 'Repairs were being made, the problem contained,' he stressed, 'in a small area.' But I remained concerned. The following day, I called the sanitary district and spoke to an individual in water quality. I felt more at ease when he stated the probability of waste getting into my well water should not be a concern. Any contaminants would be filtered through the soil. They would travel only a few inches. In whatever length of time it was, I don't quite remember. But I believe it was a year. Anyway, the message embedded in my mind was that the chance of the spill contaminating my water supply was remote."
Published by Page Publishing, Elaine Osborne's stirring story describes her campaign against local authorities to rectify the sewage spills in the Maki Swamp near Esko, Minnesota.
This true story of determination and strength begins with the background of Elaine's life. During 1980-1985, she had learned about five raw sewage spills into the Maki Swamp, ninety percent of which consisted of paper-mill wastewater. These environmental hazards affected the drinking water and the health of residents in the Esko, MN area. Elaine stood up and fought to end the sewage spills. She depicted strength and tenacity in her environmental mission. Fortunately for all the residents nearby, she did not give up until the spills ceased.
Readers who wish to experience this mesmerizing work can purchase "If I Felt Alone" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
