ALL RIGHT MAGAZINE Exclusive Interview with RICK ROBINSON

Political Deal or No Deal? The Maximum Contribution is Washington D.C. fiction at its best!

(Terra Alta)—Rick Robinson pens one of the best new novels of the year; The Maximum Contribution, new release from Publisher Page and Headline Books. With plenty of personal experience to draw from, Robinson’s characters are so well developed you might be surprised not to see their names on the ballot in the next election.

“Robinson brings us to the inside world of political wheeling and dealing with a pace that reminds me of John Grisham. It is a novel that political junkies need to own but appeals to the political novice as well. As Robinson noted, quoting Barry Goldwater, "Politics is like sex, you don't have to be good at them to enjoy them." The book is light on sex and drugs but plenty of rock and roll. Buy the book and see if you can put it down before the ending. I couldn't,” said author and syndicated columnist, Don McNay. [More Info]
