Catch Tom Rudd!

Primary Wisdom
Ensign Tom Rudd looks at himself in the mirror on a pivotal morning of his career and his life. He is a student in the midst of Navy Pilot training in, around, and over Pensacola, Florida. As his own most severe critic, he considers his recent past and endures a brutally honest self evaluation. Challenge, tragedy and some triumph have shaped the man he observes. Does Tom like who he sees, and can he become the upstanding man he so desperately strives to be? To be or not to be? That is his question and perhaps the question for all of us.

The Pedestrian, Wordsworth
In "A Letter to a friend of Robert Burns", Wordsworth wrote ""And, of poets more especially, it is true - that, if their works be good, they contain within themselves all that is necessary to their being comprehended and relished"". While it is improbable that this assertion was true when he wrote it in 1816, it is certainly not the case for readers of his poetry today. The historical context in which his poetry was written - and which is often reflected in the poems themselves - is, in many respects, little known to today's students of the romantic period, nor to those who simply enjoy reading Wordsworth's poetry. This set of books seeks to remedy that deficiency by providing much needed contextual information. This first volume is set against the background of Wordsworth's life from his birth at Cockermouth in 1770 until his return from Germany in the Spring of 1799. Two subsequent volumes will cover his life in Grasmere and at Rydal Mount respectively.
