Title: The immigrant's contract
Description: "In this new collection of linked poems, Leland Kinsey offers another installment of his moving and powerful narrative verse. Arriving in the United States by horse-and-carriage as a child, the main character of this sequence embodies the cultural transformation that so many American families have endured. Kinsey's verse details the struggle of the twentieth century - a chronicle of displacement, work, and transformation. Travels through the Canadian wilderness, a baseball game in Florida, the sabotage of archaeology, a night crossing to Cuba, a lonesome poacher's soliloquy."--Jacket.
