OCLC shows 48 library copies worldwide."Keith Wilson was born in Clovis, New Mexico in 1927. Growing up in various New Mexican villages, he spoke Spanish even before English, retaining a lifelong love of both. Eventually he became legendary as a poet, and also as a man in place, giving voice to the land and its people through his mystical yet authentic vision, expressing throughout his fierce love for those with whom he shared life. Twice nominated for the National Book Award, his work stands as a firm testament to a Life in Art, utterly committed to craft, dignity and honor." from Shaman of the Desert: The Collected Poems of Keith Wilson, 1965-2001 (Clark City Press, 2009).
