Poetic Obituaries: "I, with fast pen slung low

on my hip, would blow in, hang out, then tumble on after defending and encouraging local talent against the likes of the villainous Strikers," [William] Studebaker wrote in the preface to About a Place.

He left the manuscript in the care of his friend and occasional publisher, Rick Ardinger, executive director of the Idaho Humanities Council.

The following is a selection of poems from that unpublished book.
