Making Landfall LLC Encircle Publications

"The lyricism and power of Paul Lindholdt's evocative poems bring both the nature and culture of the American colonies to life in ways

no history book ever could. A work of remarkable originality and insight,

Making Landfall is a brilliant journey into the dark heart of

our nation's colonial past."




-Michael P. Branch, author of Rants from the Hill and

How to Cuss in Western




"The well-wrought poems in Paul Lindholdt's Making Landfall speak

in the many voices from America's colonial frontiers. The personas include Native Americans, colonists both male and female, the poet,

the outcast, the illicit lover, the persecuted, and the persecutor.

Lindholdt's notes offer a steady guide to the multitude of speakers

in this deeply satisfying collection."

-Priscilla Long, author of Crossing Over: Poems and Fire & Stone:

Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?
