Gerald R. Lynch, a lifelong son of the Midwest, addresses the unique character and outlook that make the Midwest and its people so distinctive.Jerry's thoughtful lyric poetry addresses issues of life's meaning and the passage of time. His stories, essays, and narrative poems take you on a literary journey that includes a near-tragedy while a youth growing up on a farm in Kawkawlin, near Bay City, Michigan; to Escanaba and a concert by its municipal band; to the "back of his land" and a reflection on the changing seasons of Michigan; to a ghost ship on the Great Lakes; and many other people and points of interest along the way. You'll make an important stop in Iowa to learn from the life of Frances Kinzie Lynch, a determined, cheerful farmwoman and mother who worked on the first computers, in a World War II shipyard and became a tireless advocate for small farmers. All in all, Jerry offers a fascinating and varied take on the lives of people Making Good in the Midwest.
