Summary: Author and poetry lover who is included in this book,
Comment: Dr. Leeds' Selection of Popular Epic Recitations was published in 1999, but I want to review it now. Not just because one of my pieces of rhymed poetry is included in his collection, but also because I am still amazed by the talent of this man and his devotion to rhymed poetry. The book contains favorites we all know: Annabel Lee, Gunga Din, Oh Captian! My Captain! Casey at the Bat; poetry that would NOT have lived on for years had it not been rhymed. Dr. Leeds' own story is worth a book. Author, poet, lecturer, professor, adventurer, explorer, soldier of fortune, mercenary, engineer, sailor, aviator, parachutist, muscian, dreamer, etc. He is a force to reckoned with. I highly recommend this book, and any anything else authored by Robert Leeds, to your readers. They contain everything a reader is looking for: poetry, adventure, humor and more, all wrapped up in the writings of just one man. He is my hero. My poem, Never Spend the Principal, was included amongst his choices of well-known poets. I am honored to have my work placed among such esteemed company. Dr. Leeds' acceptance of my poem encouraged me to go further in my writing career. I am now the author of "Dancing in the Dark." a creative non-fiction memoir, my short story titled, "Uncle Ben," was published by REMINISCE MAGAZINE" and I am also a freelance writer and regular contributor to MY TIME, a local newspaper in San Diego. I am now working on my second book. "A Different Kind of Memoir: The Meter of my Life." I want to thank, Dr. Leeds, for his contribution to literature and to his inspiration and support, and encourage everyone to read his books.

Summary: A poetry anthology easy to pick up, difficult to put down!
Comment: Doctor Leeds' Selection Of Popular Epic Recitations is a wonderful anthology of narrative, story-telling poetry that ranges from the well-known sagas like Paul Revere's Ride to obscure works such as The Preacher's Vacation. This marvelous compendium is a true delight to merely browse through of an evening. But be forewarned! These poems are addictive and a few minutes of browsing can quickly become hours of deep immersion. Doctor Leeds' Selection Of Popular Epic Recitations is simply one of those volumes of poetry so easy to pick up and so difficult to put down!
