Algonquin Woods

By Bob Callahan

Subjects: nonfiction, memoir, Native American, autobiography, poetry

Description: An elegaic, personal and intimate journey of growing up Irish in 1940's and 50's Northeastern America, with of all of its residual anti-Irish prejudice and the fierce and resilient Irish pride of those whom others would silence. A grounding in all things personal and political. The author, along with Eileen Callahan, was the founder of a mid-20 century independent publishing house, Turtle Island Foundation, which, among other works, was the first in the modern era to collect and publish the then-forgotten great African-American writer, Zora Neale Hurston, as well as a number of other important American writers across diverse fields.
