| Introduction | Beverly Merrick writes poetry for the mountains, the rivers and the plains. Because of her upbringing on accretion ground by the Platte River in rural Nebraska in a farm adjacent to Fort Kearny and years as a grassroots, environmental official up Cannons Creek Hollow in Appalachia, Dr. Merrick's work represents a wide spectrum of true rural values and customs.
