Description
Beginning in 1983, Donald Hall and his late wife, poet Jane Kenyon, sent Christmas cards with one of Donald's poems (one year with a poem by Jane). The cards were illustrated by various artists and printed on a letterpress by New Hampshire publisher and printer Bill Ewert. These poems have been gathered in Winter Poems from Eagle Pond, together with a short introduction by Hall and two woodblock prints by artist Barry Moser. --Donald Hall.
