Award-Winning True Story of One Woman's Stand Against the U.S.

Mrs. Orcutt's Driveway , the riveting true story of Margaret "Bonnie" Orcutt's David vs. Goliath battle with the U.S. government, has become a literary phenomenon, receiving the Literary Titan Gold Book Award, achieving #1 Best-Seller status in five Amazon categories, and selling thousands of copies worldwide.

Praised as "a beautifully written historical narrative" and "a powerful non-fiction story of resilience and resistance" by Literary Titan , this acclaimed work by C.V. Wooster blends meticulous research with cinematic storytelling to honor the legacy of a woman who refused to surrender her land or her voice.

Set in the Mojave Desert of the 1960s, Mrs. Orcutt's Driveway chronicles the unlikely journey of Bonnie Orcutt, a widowed harpist turned desert homesteader, who stood alone against a highway project that threatened her home. What began as a fight over a single driveway evolved into a years-long legal and moral standoff that climbed the highest rungs of power, reaching the desk of the President of the United States.

With over 200 reviews and a 4.7-star rating, the book resonates with readers who admire stories of resilience, echoing the spirit of Nomadland , Erin Brockovich , and The Woman Who Smashed Codes . Literary Titan hailed it as "part biography, part environmental elegy, and part protest memoir," praising Wooster's ability to balance emotional intimacy with historical precision.

The highly anticipated audiobook edition, narrated by Charlie Brogan, is available on Audible and other outlets, bringing the Mojave Desert and Bonnie Orcutt's remarkable story to life with powerful narration that immerses listeners in her struggle for justice.

As one reviewer noted, "Mrs. Orcutt's Driveway is a haunting and deeply moving tribute to one woman's refusal to fade away. It reminded me that sometimes the biggest battles are fought by the quietest people, and that every driveway, no matter how dusty or cracked, can be a frontline."

Mrs. Orcutt's Driveway is available now on Kindle [https://amzn.to/4fNiyz9] and in paperback and hardback on Amazon [https://amzn.to/45tOXHu]. Jump straight into the book and start reading the first chapter [https://read.amazon.com/sample/B0FGY958NV?clientId=share] for free today.

About the Author

C.V. Wooster is a five-time Amazon #1 Best-Selling author celebrated for turning overlooked histories into vivid, cinematic narratives. A California native, Wooster grew up traveling the desert highways of the American West, an experience that sparked a lifelong fascination with the landscapes, communities, and forgotten figures of the region.

Drawing from academic training in political management, history, multicultural education, and literature, Wooster brings both the precision of a historian and the storytelling flair of a novelist to his works. His writing explores themes of resilience, justice, and the courage of individuals who stand firm against overwhelming odds.

In addition to Mrs. Orcutt's Driveway , Wooster's forthcoming release, Searching for Bowlby , the first cinematic biography of attachment theorist John Bowlby, launches on October 1st, 2025, offering a groundbreaking, narrative-driven portrait of one of psychology's most influential figures.

When not writing, Wooster continues to explore new projects that blend untold history with cinematic vision, creating works that inspire readers and captivate filmmakers alike.
