Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the explosive, true-life exposé about an orchid lover’s journey, and about the people who shot him down. It’s about me, Luis Valdez, and how I rose to become the first Hispanic President of the Alamo Orchid Society in San Antonio, Texas. It’s about how I was unanimously elected and re-elected for two terms in office, and then how the President who succeeded me kicked me out of the Club. In a larger sense, it’s a tell-all tale about gross mismanagement in a voluntary society, and it reflects not only on the ineptitude of the current AOS leaders, but also on the culpability of the American Orchid Society, their parent organization.
