A Vermonter's Literary Hodgepodge

Book excerpt: A Vermonter rambles through the writing field for nearly three-quarters of a century. During the first part the flow in the field grows a crop of poetry. Then the course of growing produces a large quantity of messages delivered on Sunday mornings in a number of Vermont churches. Portion three of the field grows a limited crop of essays. In the final little corner of the field some small seeds of Christmas "editorials" from the "Brennan Chronicle" spring up and flourish. For more specific details, select for reading those portions which appeal to your interests.
