String Too Short to Be Saved: Recollections of Summers on a New England Farm

With a new Introduction by Donald Hall

Donald Hall is not only one of America's greatest living poets and our former national Poet Laureate, but he is also among our most charming personal essayists. This collection of reminiscences glows with the affection he holds for the land, the people, and the customs of rural New England, and especially for the small farm near Ragged Mountain that he visited every summer as a child. Each vignette in this poignant collection contains the telltale signs of an era's end, of a proud culture in transition, and of a land in jeopardy. Not only beautiful writing, it is also a gentle paean to a disappearing landscape and way of life. If you want to understand the Yankee character, travel with Hall to New Hampshire.
