Description: "In stark and bracing contrast with the signature narcissism and self-pity of contemporary verse, The Cast of Valor is not "feeling verse," nor is it confessional or even personal. This is true poetry, communal in the greater Christian tradition and anchored in universal human experience. Traditional English verse is employed by the poet in meter and rhyme, but the subject matter is far from archaic in theme and perspective. This poetry is universal in its consideration of historic parallels in individual, personal lives."--Jacket.
