Cultivating Justice in the Garden State

"Raymond Lesniak's heart and passion for animals and all those without a voice leap off the pages. Aesop said that no act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. I wonder what he would say about Senator Lesniak's legacy of kindness which truly is stretching around the world?  Be inspired by these words and by this warrior for the voiceless. I have been."

"I know of no other Democratic New Jersey state legislator who had a greater impact on salient statewide issues beyond his legislative district than Ray Lesniak. And these were issues that will affect basic values and the quality of life in the Garden State for decades to come....I have in the past taught New Jersey politics and government university courses, and this book would well qualify for the mandatory course reading list."
