Autorentext
Eric J. Dorer's life spans experiences that begin as a New Jersey kid, growing up immersed in the confidence and candor characteristic of the New York City metropolitan area in the 1960's and 1970's. His life continues through his early 20's as a factory worker, using earnings generated by seven-day work weeks to build a professional recording studio, where he composed and produced original music and commercial soundtracks through his early adulthood.
His life proceeds to law school in late-1980's South Florida, and a 20+ year career as a trial lawyer. Eric J. Dorer's legal career cemented a life-long appreciation and a deeply-held respect for the U.S. Constitution, and a profound reverence for the American Rule of Law.
His personal adventure takes the reader through a marriage to a Colombian girl in pre-Maduro Venezuela?a marriage that has endured some 34 years to date of this publication?and the successes and struggles of businesses in Florida, Puerto Rico and North Carolina. Perhaps the last phase of his life begins as the author of this book.
It is a life of rich experiences and boundless opportunities that would only have been possible in this exceptional nation?opportunities and freedoms Eric J. Dorer deeply believes must be preserved for future generations.
