Описание: The bulk of these poems were written by Densmore between the years 1998 and 2003. Similar in scope to the poems of Carl Sandburg and Robert Frost with the imagistic power of Wallace Stevens, his poetry comes from a quiet and thoughtful observation of life, nature, and the people who inhabit both. The poems throughout are gentle and warm but never without purpose and drive. In their unfolding is revealed a comforting philosophy of time, memory, and the events of which both are composed. In an early review of the original print run Tom Slayton -- then editor of Vermont Life Magazine -- said "... Victor Densmore's poetry ... is finely wrought and sweet and reminds me a bit of the poetry of the late William Mundell who also celebrated the passing life of the farm." His second book, 'Dust of the Road' will be published at the end of January, 2016.

Land of Dreams is an inspiring romantic novel about an English professor who discovers she doesn't have to accept a life of unhappiness.
Five months short of her fortieth birthday, Ellie reflects on how musing about the meaning of life just isn't the same as it was in her twenties, when her life was opened up before her like a "land of dreams, so various, so beautiful, so new."
Ellie finds solace from her disappointments in her daily runs and while writing her intensely personal confessional poetry, published under the pen name Avery Vaughn, which allows her a sense of invisibility from the world. And after her young colleague and best friend, Marta, takes her out when they are supposed to be at an English conference, the dance floor becomes another place for her to disappear from it all.
Enter Dr. Liam Curran, writer, critic, mountain climber, musician, and professor-a beautiful, radiant force, both commanding and gentle. Against her will, Ellie is drawn to him.
How can he know so much about her life?
Immerse yourself in a world where literature and poetry dance with mystical forces to reveal the natural order of the events in our lives.

Описание: Over the first half of the twentieth century, scientist and scholar Frances Densmore (1867-1957) visited thirty-five Native American tribes, recorded more than twenty-five hundred songs, amassed hundreds of artifacts and Native-crafted objects, and transcribed information about Native cultures. Her visits to indigenous groups included meetings with the Ojibwes, Lakotas, Dakotas, Northern Utes, Ho-chunks, Seminoles, and Makahs. A "New Woman" and a self-trained anthropologist, she not only influenced government attitudes toward indigenous cultures but also helped mold the field of anthropology. Densmore remains an intriguing historical figure. Although researchers use her vast collections at the Smithsonian and Minnesota Historical Society, as well as her many publications, some scholars critique her methods of "salvage anthropology" and concepts of the "vanishing" Native American. Travels with Frances Densmore is the first detailed study of her life and work. Through narrative descriptions of her life paired with critical essays about her work, this book is an essential guide for understanding how Densmore formed her collections and the lasting importance they have had for researchers in a variety of fields. Joan M. Jensen is a professor emerita of history at New Mexico State University. She is the author of several books, including Calling This Place Home: Women on the Wisconsin Frontier, 1850-1925. Michelle Wick Patterson is an associate professor of history at Mount St. Mary's University. She is the author of Natalie Curtis Burlin: A Life in Native and African American Music (Nebraska, 2010).
