Just to let you know, I did get the book but started reading it and realizing it was going to take me a while, I ordered a second copy which I can now send on to you if you are still interested, considered it a gift, something we can discuss as we go along. I've also gotten Crane's "letters" which is even longer then the bio. I'm going to read the bio and the letters before I even try to tackle his poetry.

I love the biographer's way of writing, he goes from a nice easy style when discussing life events but almost gets prosey when discussing the poetry.

Please send me you address by email and I will get it off to you. Gayle
