Sun, Sand & Soapweed

This second volume of cowboy and western poetry by Clark Crouch reflects viewpoints, biases, and philosophies shaped by drought and the Great Depression of the 1930's in the Sandhills of Nebraska. It captures glimpses of both serious and humorous aspects of life in the west...from Crouchmas to Calving Season and from Four-Letter Words to Western Sunset. As in his first book, the poetry is reality-based but the author has not hesitated to exercise the cowboy's propensity to embellish the truth.
