Brewer, Ken W. auth Why Dogs Stopped Flying: Poems Why Dogs Stopped Flying Utah State University, University Libraries 2006 1 online resource (47 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier The solid rightness of image after image in Ken Brewer's poetry was never better than in Why Dogs Stopped Flying.
