Like the short stories in his classic, million-copy-selling\u003cbr\u003e\nYondering, and his best-selling memoir\u003cbr\u003e\nEducation of a Wandering Man, the poems in this book are inspired by his experiences and memories of his journeys across oceans and continents. It is vintage L'Amour storytelling--in verse--about nature, the land, and the people who loved and braved it.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSmoke From This Altar begins with a newly written introduction by his wife Kathy in which she discusses the special place this work has held in the L'Amours' lives. In concludes with twenty previously uncollected L'Amour poems selected by his family.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nImpassioned, adventurous, heroic, and humorous,\u003cbr\u003e\nSmoke From This Altar is unique L'Amour writing, to be read and enjoyed again and again.\u003cbr\u003e\n      From the Publisher      \u003cbr\u003e\n\"When one sees that Louis L'Amour is six feet tall and views his 185 pounds of bone and muscle, one is inclined to agree with [critic] Walt Mills who one expressed surprise that one who could polish off an opponent in the prize ring could also polish off a sonnet of startling beauty.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSo read the sales brochure for Smoke From This Altar, a book that has become legendary among Louis L'Amour readers--the very first book he ever published.
