A book of poetry for people who never dreamed they could like poetry! Published to great acclaim from both readers and reviewers, Under a Gull's Wing is the first contemporary collection of poems and photographs about the Jersey Shore. The anthology covers quintessential shore subjects from boardwalks to beaches; love and loss; legends, lore and famous landmarks. Under a Gull's Wing takes readers on an evocative trip from the tip of Sandy Hook to Victorian Cape May. The contributors include some of the nation's best known poets -- Walt Whitman, John Ciardi, Robert Pinsky, A. R. Ammens and Maxine Kumin, among others. A mix of celebration, lament and history, Under a Gull's Wing presents all of the Shore: the natural beauty of Island Beach and the Forsythe Refuge, familiar and timeless beach towns and the faded glory of Asbury Park and Atlantic City. Quirky history such as Lucy the Margate Elephant and the High-Diving Horse of Atlantic City's old Steel Pier are also remembered. This attractive hardcover includes more than two dozen artistic photographs by some of the state's best photographers. The Jersey Shore has inspired some of the nation's best poets; this book is a worthy tribute to the artists and to their subject.
