Have you always had a fascination with the 5-7-5, seventeen syllable rhythm of haiku? The manner in which its very succinctness can conjure, evoke and provoke imaginings, memories and thoughts both familiar and as yet unknown?
American Haiku: Fifty Dates and Fifty States brings you English language haiku that educates, transports and makes you smile.
American Haiku: Fifty Dates and Fifty States gives you, dear reader, America’s beginnings, its formation, its engines, its people, through the lens of its glorious history. Follow the growth of the States from the original thirteen colonies through each westerly expansion, to their culmination in Manifest Destiny as each one is admitted to the Union. Feel, see and imagine, in fifty seventeen-syllable treatments, the development, the economic growth, and the personalities that shaped our history from small outposts, through invention, strife, and preservation to modernity through industry, technology and leadership in the world.
