From the back cover: "This grand collection of narratives by the versatile New England poet/novelist/naturalist is certain to satisfy Lea's already considerable audience and attract many new enthusiastic readers to the growing narrative movement in American poetry. This is the volume in which Lea demonstrates that his muscular meditative line can be potently adapted to telling the stories we most hope to hear. In the process, the vivid portrait of a compelling region and salt of the earth characters transcend the usual occasional experience that marks so much of our contemporary poetry."
