Reading this has been on my to-do list for fifteen years or so; I feel almost guilty about not reading it sooner. I'm happy that I finally got around to ordering a copy. I'm a sucker for epic poetry and love anything that involves the Northwest. It's apparent that Ms. Harris's work is meticulously researched. The free verse is easily approachable and is worth multiple readings. Life in the Old Northwest was rough, a foreign experience for most people in today's world with today's experiences.

I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 for this edition because there is a glaring error in the back cover description. The main character in the poem is "Helen Welch", not "Helen Walsh". I hope the author catches this and gets this typo corrected!… (mehr)

Backyard horse breeding the old-fashioned way--with drugs and whips and hobbles and chains. Finally occurs to her that it's "like assisted rape." It's an interesting book, but one I have seriously mixed feelings about.
