The stone mason of Tor House

About this book

This is the first full-length biography of Robinson Jeffers. He wrote of impassioned people with a vigor and beauty of imagery almost unsurpassed by any other poet writing in English. His life and his development as a poet is ably chronicled by Melba Berry Bennett, who has had access to letters and documents not otherwise available. Her intimate friendship with Jeffers, his wife Una and his twin sons, Garth and Donnan, extended over the last thirty-five years of his life.
