Perhaps no state rivals Virginia when it comes to early history. Yet, there are many aspects of Virginia's early history that are either unknown or vaguely known by the general public. Over the last thirty years, Larson has written over thirty plays that deal with these aspects and the generally well-known men and women involved in them. These people include such names as Thomas Jefferson, John Marshall, Patrick Henry, Meriwether Lewis, John Randolph, John Robinson, Nathaniel Bacon, William Berkeley, John Chiswell, Martha Jefferson, Harry Lee, Nancy Randolph, Theodosia Burr and Edmund...

From nursery rhymes, to advertising, to most forms of popular music, both children and adults like rhyme. Sadly, modern poetry has generally eschewed rhyme in favor of free-verse. Robert Frost once remarked that "free-verse is like playing tennis with the net down." I would add that today it's also playing tennis on an unmarked court. In the academic world, the "prose poem" is in, and the traditional rhymed poem is out. My book runs counter to this aspect of modernity. Yet, admittedly, a few of my poems below are cinquains, which is a form of poetry with 22 syllables in 5 lines (2-4-6-8-2)....

My purpose in writing this book is to provide some amusement and insight regarding the American political process, especially in a presidential year. Because American politics is often characterized by insincere and foolish talk, journalist H.L. Mencken once termed it a "carnival of bunkum," and 2016 proved to be no exception.
If fact, this year the politicians went overboard when it comes to claptrap because it was also a year of grotesque, repellant sideshows, and I believe that the limerick is the perfect vehicle of satire for this kind of behavior. My limericks are not politically...
