In Troubled Times

An initial reading of this collection could suggest that primarily hate motivates these writings. Further thought may generate the question: what is hated? The answer is that the author hates what threatens what he loves. Then it is seen that love is really the underlying motive. Expressing sometimes belligerent tones, these outspoken, mostly rhyming verse-poems may reinforce and gladden some of the personal sentiments of those who value fighting for the West.
