At This Distance

First full-length poetry collection by Northwest poet and writer, Bette Lynch Husted, author of ABOVE THE CLEARWATER, a finalist for the Oregon Book Award in Creative Non-Fiction. "Bette Husted, so richly rooted in the wild Oregon land she inhabits, writes with deep care and conscience. Her poems shun nothing..." --Naomi Shibah Nye. "This is a poet who will take you on roads you don't know to places where you haven't been, the lonesome places...the farthest West, farther than the pioneers. She goes the distance." -- Ursula K. Le Guin
