Riassunto

Step into the life of WWII veteran Nathan Polsky. Through rhyme, humor and insights, his poetry will warm your heart with a sentimental story or light-hearted witty wisdom. "Readers who will enjoy this book most are those who share the time-frame involved and the poet's view of life. Very few poems are subtle, but many are humorous and possess a clear-eyed view of times passed. Here we have a memoir of a long life, well-lived. Many of the poems express the wisdom gained over many years, a summing up of one man's view of the harvest of productive life. If you enjoy poetry that says what it means and means what it says, then you will delve into this work with pleasure." - Sue Scalf, Poet
