Book Description

Excerpt from Sunflowers: A Book of Kansas Poems To the peopl'e. Of Kansas I dedicate the labor of five years; not mine alone, but that of a group of friends who have equally given of their time to this little volume. At first, my only intention was to collect the lyric verse of living Kansas writers; but as the conception grew, it seemed possible to include the work of earlier men and women who had sensed the significance of our state - and the relatives of those early authors have added their assistance to that of my other friends.
