Lawrence, and T.S. Eliot. |

ABC
of Reading by Ezra PoundThe "Ezraversity" at work, laying down how and what to read, from Sappho to Laforgue.

Sacajawea
by Rich HaneyFrom the Author: Many noted historians, including Stephen Ambrose and Ken Burns, claim Sacajawea died in South Dakota in 1812. My book strives to prove that she died on April 9th, 1884, on Wyoming's Wind River Reservation and that remains the one and only place she has ever been buried. The U. S. Government and Sacajawea's own Shoshoni people agree with my richly documented position on when America's most memorialized female died and where she is buried, facts that I deem extremely important." From the Denver Post's Non-fiction Editor Sandra Dallas "compelling." |
