An Anthology of the Writing of Earl Ronneberg is a compilation of twenty-two forms of writing that were authored between 1960 and 2016.During those fifty-seven years the reader will encounter written documents that include: a graded book report, fourteen one-act plays, almost a hundred poems, a speech, vignettes (defined below), six short stories, two successful mid-term exams, two graded final exams, a graded Master's Degree thesis, essays, a novel, a professional biography, an entertainment monologue, a fictional dream, a professional certification nomination, various academic papers, humorous recollections, autobiographical sketches, fragments of a memoir, introductory stories and information for every piece of writing, and a letter. The vignette section includes the following: action-packed fictional and real-life adventures of canoe rescues, fictional adventures of chases from locations as near as Michigan and as far away as Florence, Italy, fictionalized historical adventures from the Siege of Haarlem (Holland) in 1573 to the brave and successful challenge made by a Native American Ottawa Indian maiden to undo the unlawful actions of a Lumber Baron in the 19th century, real-life adventures of a young Chicagoan that range from his ordeals in the frozen depths of winter in that city to his battles with the huge white-capped breakers of Lake Michigan, and the use of three different genres to span time itself through: an epic poem depicting the creation of the Universe, to the story of a young man of twenty-two and his discovery while walking on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee between 45. C. E. and 55 C. E., and ending with the real-life story of one High School student doing what had never been done before followed by his attempt, as an adult, to walk in the footsteps of one of America's most well-known humorists. Drawing heavily on Ronneberg's previous fourteen books but also adding many new pieces of writing, An Anthology of the Writing of Earl Ronneberg offers something for every reader.
