by Thomas Ronald Vaughan (Author)

Life in the fallen world is tragic, and it devolves to writers to artfully identify and name the trans-tragic, which includes love, joy, faith, hope, and courage. This challenge is real enough and rare in its successful achievement. Poems here address many of these themes, paying special attention to aspects of Southern history, culture, and tradition. They praise what is excellent while denouncing and rejecting prejudice, cruelty, and injustice in all history. The book catalogs “the good and the evil” and envisions an ultimate positive outcome for all peoples built on the foundation of faith in a Higher Power.
