R Gene Miller loves the United States of America and what she stands for. Writing this book is his way of expressing that. It's his contribution to the never-ending fight to preserve the freedoms we have enjoyed. It's his way of waking up the American people who have slumbered as our Constitution slowly fades into obscurity.

R Gene is the author of numerous newspaper and magazine articles and editorials on human interest and current events. He has also authored a multiple award-winning Southern fiction book (which is truth disguised as fiction), and a book of campfire stories for young adults.

He worked in the paper industry for forty-four years before retiring in 2017. Prior to that, he bagged groceries, cleaned bricks, worked in tobacco fields as a cropper (picker), worked briefly in a circus, managed a supermarket, handled inventory control for a convenience store chain, and worked as a dental technician. Writing, however, is his second (but favorite) career. He attended school at what is now Florida State College.

Although a native of Tennessee, he has been a proud Floridian for sixty-five years, having made his home in North Florida's Lake City in the Suwannee Valley and in Yulee on Florida's First Coastthe Atlantic seaboard. R Gene is married to Linda Miller and together enjoy a "Brady Bunch" family of nine children, twenty grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren.
