""Doug Rawlings' poems about the Vietnam War, full of anger, shame,
suffering and solace, are hard to bear--as they should be. His
poems about family life, children, the passing of friends since the
war are honest, vulnerable, playful and loving. Together they allow
him, and us, full humanity, an expansion of humanity that is
particularly poignant in light of its denial to those on both sides
who did not survive the war."" - Rob Shetterly "I have met Doug
Rawlings only once, and then only in passing at a Veterans for
Peace convention in his home state of Maine in 2010, but I have
been reading his poetry for nearly 40 years. Spending time with
this compilation of his life's work, I feel as if I'm in the
company of an old and dear and trusted friend. The range of his
emotions, the diversity of his interests, the keenness of his
sensibilities, his capacity to be fully and consciously human leave
no doubt that his has been and continues to be a life examined and
well worth living." - W. D. Ehrhart
