A Lucky American Childhood will appeal to people with memories of the small-town America that Paul Engle describe ..."
"Born in 1908, Paul Engle grew up the son of a livery stable keeper. As he writes in his dedication to this loving account, "I had a lucky life. Such a way will never be lived here again. It has gone with the wild buffalo skinners and the Indian fighters, with my mother's hands whose tough calluses tore the sheets as she made my bed, with that marvelous rich reek of harnesses and saddle leather, of horse manure and sweat which I happily ..."

"Few people work harder, and for less reward, than poets, especially American poets. In a country where only half the people read even one book of any kind a year, the poet is virtually ignored; his books sell badly and usually at a loss to the publisher; his readers number not many more than the sum total of his fellow poets and their students. There are some exceptions, but for every Robert Frost there are dozens of greatly talented an ..."

As we know today, they pursued this goal in vain, and most of their theories have been refuted by modern chemistry. However, among the many charlatans and windbags (whom the 17th-century alchemist George Starkey likened to sheared hogs whose squeaking far exceeds the wooll), there were a few serious s ..."

"Paul Engle. The Glory of the Senses The senses of our tough but delicate bodies
seemed to be tougher and more delicate earlier in this century than today. I
remember it as a more sensuous time, when we lived closer to the physical world
enriching our nose, hands, ears, eyes, and tongue. Many of the smells, touches,
sounds, sights, and tastes have wholly disappeared or are rare, the lost
enrichment of our lives. Of course, horses st ..."
