Andrew Benson Brown has had poems and reviews published in a few journals. His epic-in-progress, Legends of Liberty, will chronicle the major events of the American Revolution if he lives to complete it.

Thank you for doing this work for the sake of poetry, ABB. The world of poets thanks you.
Appreciate your appreciation!
Andrew, what it takes to build these little words-of-wonder is intimidating for the average special-affectors (like myself). These are a very welcome addition to any poetry site. Great job, whiz-kid!
