Poet Laureate of the United StatesFor nearly twenty years, Donald Hall and his late wife, poet Jane Kenyon, sent Christmas cards with one of Donald's poems (one year with a poem by Jane). The cards were printed on a letterpress by New Hampshire printer Bill Ewert. These poems have been gathered in Winter Poems from Eagle Pond, together with a short introduction by Hall and woodblock prints by artist Barry Moser. Winter Poems from Eagle Pond is printed in red and brown on linen paper in an edition of 300 copies. These have been numbered and signed by the poet, hand sewn by the publisher using alpaca yarn, and bound in handmade paper incorporating maple leaves from Eagle Pond, gathered by Hall's grandchildren. The covers of both editions have been printed by letterpress (hand-fed single sheet impression).
