Review:
“Consistency of content and of style has always marked Cooper. From his first to his current book, he has been a poet who, like Nova Scotia naturalist poet Harry Thurston, gleans inspiration from nature and familial relationships.” George Elliott Clarke, Halifax Sunday Herald

There is also a special edition of the book: 9781894031400
