A collection of poems originally published in Dacotah Territory Magazine
Edited by Mark Vinz and Grayce Ray
Only a few copies remain of this celebration of 1970s literary culture on the northern plains. The book begins with essays by Mark Vinz, Joseph Richardson, Robert Schuler, and Grayce Ray--the movers and shakers whose passion pushed them to edit, publish, and distribute poetry and prose. Illustrations and photographs by Bernel Bayliss, Leo Kim, James Ver Doorn, Carol Smith, Linda Hanson, and more--first seen in issues of Dacotah Territory--are interspersed throughout the collection. All of the poems in this collection are extracted from previous issues of Dacotah Territory Magazine. The poems are presented alphabetically by author, and the appendix lists the poems in the order they originally appeared, by issue. Poets include Robert Bly, Alvin Greenberg, Patricia Hampl, Joy Harjo, Margaret Hasse, Dale Jacobson, Deborah Keenan, Ted Kooser, Richard Lyons, Thomas McGrath, and many more.
