New Joe Williams book

Connoisseurs of MPS board fights will recall that Joe Williams covered MPS for the Journal Sentinel over several years before moving on to the New York Daily News. He had a singular knack for making the often arcane board controversies into matters of high drama. I received a note that he has a new book coming out October 7 titled: Cheating Our Kids: How Politics and Greed Ruin Education. He promises that Milwaukee, "figures prominently in several chapters." As a former greedy politician myself, I look forward to reading it. It can be pre-ordered from Amazon.
