Synopsis

In Nothing But the Truth, her first book, her interest and knowledge in both Sociology and Anthropology is readily visible as she reveals the often hidden but ever-present evil that lurks within the human nature. Each small rural community has its own distinctive "culture" often driven by a relative few local citizens. In such communities there are people who, upon first contact, seem warm and welcoming. However, "outsiders" quickly discover the intolerance of those who do not appreciate new ways of doing things; those always are more comfortable keeping things static than operating in new and otherwise accepted ways. It always has been this author's motto "to do the right thing no matter what" Following that motto has inherent negative side effects as noted by another author, Ernest Hemingway. He said "The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, use discipline to tell the truth and the capacity for sacrifice, ironically it is their virtues that that make them vulnerable. They are wounded; sometimes destroyed"

Biographie de l'auteur

Allison True was born and raised on a farm in northern Minnesota. She holds a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology and Anthropology from a university in her home state. Her desire to help and care for others always has been strong. It is no wonder, then, that after being a homemaker until her last child entered elementary school she made a career working in the healthcare industry. She started her career as a Social Worker, then took a position in Human Resources, and finally ended up as a Nursing Home Administrator. Her sixteen years as a NHA makes her uniquely qualified to write about the challenges associated with the business.
