Welcome to This Great Green Valley!

I’m very pleased to announce the release of my new collection of poetry from Broadstone Books, This Great Green Valley. The work reflects my research in the archives at the Filson Historical Society where I explored Kentucky’s 18th century pioneer history to recover voices from that period and discover new layers in our received narratives about the establishment of Kentucky. The book also includes a long poem about my own childhood spent on the Kentucky River in the same great green valley where once my earliest ancestors settled.
