Poetry of the American West

By Alison Hawthorne editor Deming

Book Overview

One hundred fifty poems by seventy-five poets offer an inclusive collage of voices--protest poems of the Chicano farmworkers' movement, campfire cowboy songs, sacred Native American songs, and works by Willa Cather, Langston Hughes, Adrienne Rich, and other canonical figures----from a land where cultural collision is part of the rugged landscape.
