Notă biografică
"Yankee peddler" Russell Rowland grew up in Connecticut, and now peddles his poetic wooden nutmegs in New Hampshire. An ordained minister in the United Church of Christ, he served churches in both states. In retirement, he is a trail volunteer for the Lakes Region Conservation Trust, a judge of local Poetry Out Loud competitions, and an infatuated father and grandfather.
Rowland's poetry has appeared in over a hundred small journals, two chapbooks, a previous full-length collection, We're All Home Now, from Beech River Books, and the Encircle Publications anthology, Except for Love: New England Poets Inspired by Donald Hall. He has received seven Pushcart Prize nominations.
