Secret deals are often exposed, and right and wrong become crystal clear. That was the case when Washington State governments attempted to cheat the public out of land promised them, and for a pittance in return. It never was a good deal for the state or the public, but the state was blinded by dollars from one of the richest corporations in the world that wanted the land. In the end, the state learned those dollars would not be forthcoming. The agreements they thought they made with the multinational corporation, that corporation thought otherwise. It was left to the public and the courts to decide the fate of this land. This is the story of a small group of citizens that fought back and won.
