About the Author
Roy F. Weaver grew up in the Wisconsin woods down a gravel and dirt road with no cell phone and no computer, just a tractor, an ax, and a shotgun. He is an Eagle Scout, an Air Force Veteran, and a career civil servant. Spending time in other countries, including Iraq in 2005, Weaver got a firsthand view of the human history he studied in a public school.
When Weaver returned from Iraq, his daughter and only child, Hero, was diagnosed with the same brain cancer as a couple well known Politi-Sharks. Unlike them, she stuck up for the bullied, fought the unfair, and lived to rescue the oppressed and forgotten. Hero was and remains Weaver's standard for how we should all stand up for ourselves in a world that demands we submit to those who believe they have a right to reign in dominion over us. He dedicates this story to her for questioning everything, challenging every assumption, and facing her life and death with the greatest courage Weaver has ever witnessed.
