The boys, well built and handsome, bronzed from exposure to the weather and wearing the uniform of the Continental army, were making their way along Wall street in the City of New York one pleasant September afternoon. Dick Slater was the captain and Bob Estabrook the first lieutenant of the Liberty Boys, a band of one hundred sterling young patriots engaged in the war for American independence, and at that time quartered in New York, on the Commons at the upper end of town. As they were walking along Wall street, Dick, who was very observant, noticed a man on the opposite side of the street, who seemed to be watching them closely as if with an idea of learning what they knew, and following them wherever they went. At this time the city was threatened by the British, who held Long Island and had ships at Staten Island just across from Manhattan ready to proceed up the rivers at any time. The presence of British spies in the city was suspected, and Dick, who was an expert spy himself, had his suspicions concerning the man opposite as soon as he saw the fellow.

Set at a writers' residency in NE Wyoming, these finely crafted poems are candid and accessible. Rooted in decades of journal entries, they probe a painful divorce, love rediscovered and sustained for decades, the tension between youthful faith, doubt, and mature hope. They explore the power and limits of words. Roaming the Big Horn foothills, the poet sustains a journey of internal quest, seeking to reconcile past and present selves. In their cumulative effect, the poems build a narrative of discovery, friendship, hope, and delight in the natural world.
