“A masterwork of American poetry. . . . Inada’s ear for the musicality of English is unsurpassed; Legends from Camp is a veritable symphony you must not miss!”—Leslie Marmon Silko

Inada is the author of five books: Legends from Camp, Drawing the Line, In This Great Land of Freedom, Just Into/Nations, and Before the War.
