This volume of poetry focuses on the game of baseball and the people involved in it. The verse delves into the sociological and psychological side of the game, showing both its light and dark facets.

This volume has two parts: The first section contains "Amoricon," a 25-page verse narrative that focuses on political intrigue and the price of power. "I think that readers can see reflections of contemporary politics in this piece," says the author William Graham. "But its style pays homage to the classical tradition of extended poetic narratives." The second section contains a series of "poetical vignettes" that focus on travel, nature, aging and mortality, among other topics. "I consider much of my work as 'social poetry, ' because I feel that poetry should cast a light on universal societal issues," Graham adds. "In addition, I'm the traditionalist in the sense that I use rhymes in most instances."

This is a selection of poetry for grade school children aimed at increasing their knowledge about world geography. It contains short poems about interesting places on all of the world's continents.

This volume contains a set of lyrical poems primarily inspired by exploration and nature.
