The senior poet of Nebraska and the Great Plains, Don Welch may sardonically regard himself as the ""shriveled old man"" who both explores the Plains' interiors and, by writing about them, becomes the protector of the earth's treasures. The gnomes in this collection are beautiful little crystals of verse, reminiscent of the brevity of ancient Chinese poetry.
