Behold more than a book in your hands. It is a first class ticket for a train with every poem providing a shovelful of coal. It accommodates two trains of thought. To some this book will be a shield and to others a mirror. Inside the former will join their sword while the latter will meet their reflection.

Along the way you will pass many a crossroad and frontier during a snowcapped ascent up sacred Mount Shasta.At the beginning of this trek the conductor%u2019s father will issue you your ticket at the forward. At the last station you will hear from such respected historical personages as Eleanor Roosevelt and Robert M. La Follette; and voil.
