Reviews

Someday when historians of the future cast about in newspapers and magazines for material to enable them to reconstruct ways of life in the Middle West some one may exhume Sigmund's books and great will be the joy of the discoverer.--Newberry Prize-wining author, Charles Finger (1935)

Someday when historians of the future cast about in newspapers and magazines for material to enable them to reconstruct ways of life in the Middle West...some one may exhume Sigmund's books...and great will be the joy of the discoverer. -- Newberry Prize-wining author, Charles Finger (1935) The publication of The Plowman Sings should provide those interested in the making of literary history with ample food for thought. State Historical Society Of Iowa, Fall 2009 It is poetry full of sights and sounds, the smells and colors of the field and the woodland. There are in it that sense of freshness and surprise, that breath of field folk and orchard trees that can only be given back in poetry by one who has learned their names and all their secrets.
