Appalachian Dream Catcher is a compilation of literary works filled with distinctive style and rhythmic expression. Carolyn Rae Adkins, a nonpareil poet and an English teacher in the Ohio Valley for over 35 years, dedicated this work to Walt Whitman. She loved Whitman. She loved West Virginia. She loved to write. As you will see from her words and thoughts, her lens was sharp and bright. She will be missed. From the author, "One must celebrate life with all its sweet-sour smells and sing an American song. I dedicate my work to Walt Whitman: American historian, poetic philosopher of the 1800s, enigma to Victorian morality, worshipper of America's youth and dream, Whitman, the great American prophet and poet who urges us to look to the reality and beauty of life, to see the stars, to touch the naturalness of man, to take pride in our United States of America."
