Description: Poet and cardiologist John Stone is a man of many voices. A gifted verse maker, he exhibits in his writing the qualities of a compassionate physician, a musician, linguist, naturalist, and down-to-earth yet whimsical grandfather, son, husband, and brother. Selections from four previous books together with twenty-two new works compose this exquisite volume, a "best of the best" sampling from a beloved poet.
Review Quotes: "There are any number of physicians who have earned attention as prose writers, but very few--excepting such poets as William Carlos Williams and Merrill Moore--who have written significant poetry. Dr. John Stone belongs in that rare and honored company."
