This is the first volume of poetry by this 30-year veteran of the National Park Service, where he worked as a Senior Planner at the Interpretive Design Center in Harper's Ferry, West Virginia. His media speciality was wayside (outdoor) exhibits. Projects took him to India, Iceland, Bulgaria, and Poland, where he collaborated with those nations' park personnel to develop prototype visitor centres and interpretative exhibits. Geographically his poetry is just as far-flung, and reflects his intimate knowledge of and love for Planet Earth.
