This grand collection of poetic narratives by a versatile New England poet/novelist/naturalist demonstrates that his muscular meditative line can be potently adapted to telling the stories we most hope to hear. These poems form a vivid portrait of a compelling region and salt-of-the-earth characters that moves in step with the work of other Vermont poets, such as David Budbill and Hayden Carruth.
