by Phil Liggett

Phil Liggett is a poet and this book confirms it. Didn't care too much for the reformatting of Phil's words to make them appear "poetic" (he doesn't need that "help") but the words themselves are great! I hear Phil's voice when I ride my bike and I hear it very clearly when reading this book! ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/21572821 to: The Harvest Gypsies: On the Road to the Grapes of Wrath (Paperback) by John Steinbeck
Interesting series of articles about California's Depression-era agricultural workers that Steinbeck wrote for an SF newspaper. Definitely has some relevance today. I didn't realize that large corporate farms were very influential regarding policy even back then. The writing is pretty basic but the subject matter is pretty compelling. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/63938931 My California: Journeys By Great Writers (Paperback) by Donna Wares
