"Poet, archaeologist & naturalist from Wooster, Ohio, Mark Hersman is as much in love with the poet as the earth, the artifact as the poem.  His Chapbook Unearthed, captures your imagination, carries you deep into the quite forest along the paths that Indians trod and shows you sacred forgotten secrets of soft poetic joy." 

"Mark opens our eyes in Awakening, quiets us with Unseen Voices, shows us The Mask, Asks us What If, shapes us with She, takes us Two in Tandem to a Hillside Fruit Stand, takes us to the Ascending Tree and brings us Unearthed. A Chapbook you will not want to be without !"
