FISHING FOR ETERNITY

KENT GRAMM

Besides being about noble, humble, and abominable fish like the Northern Pike, Sunfish, and Snakehead, Fishing for Eternity is about love, loss, family, friendship, time, and the hope of a hereafter. It is about two rivers--the Willow and the St. Croix--and how they intersect in the souls of immigrants and flow through the lives of their children. "The Lord does not subtract fr...

NATURE’S BIBLE

KENT GRAMM

Striking photographic images paired with stories and statements by birds, mammals, and reptiles cast light on some of humanity's most sacred writings. Speaking rhinos and puffins are no more unlikely than talking humans; and considering where all of our talk has gotten us (the brink of extinction), it is time we listened to our fellow creatures. They are funny, thoughtful, obse...

SHARPSBURG

KENT GRAMM

The Civil War, sometimes called "The American Iliad," is an epic of violence, rage, bravery, and love, whose echoes still can be heard. America's bloodiest day was September 17, 1862--the Battle of Antietam, or Sharpsburg, which enabled President Lincoln to issue a proclamation freeing all slaves in the rebellious states. The battle's story is told here by two soldiers: a Yanke...

In vigorous contemporary language--complaining, lamenting, and wisecracking on everything from Job's wife to baseball, crows to angels, circus elephants to Mary Magdalene--but in traditional form, these sonnet...
