Description:
Harper, 1977. Paperback. Good. Good/Good- copy. Cover has heavy wear around the edges and on the spine, and creasing. Severe chipping on the spine has caused the paper to lift.

New York: Harper & Row, Publishers, 1977. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo. Pp. 267. Indexes of titles and first lines. Fore-edge untrimmed. Lavender cloth stamped with silver lettering. Fine in Fine dust jacket. Signed in full by Stafford on the title page. With a handbill laid in announcing an Academy of American Poets program at the Donnell Library Center, NYC, titled "Education of the Poet: William Stafford" for which he was introduced by Laura Gilpin. Stafford is often labeled a "Western poet" but his West includes a boyhood in Kansas and drawing universal qualities from the place names and familiarity of his adopted Oregon. "Western" only so far as using what he knows, which happens to be within reach. Per James Dickey, Stafford's "a real poet, a born poet."
