In The Receipt, poetry blends with history and its lessons in a tribute to the human spirit. Reeves's poems are a receipt for life lived through the ages. Whether pre-cataclysmic Pompeii, Michelangelo on horseback to Bologna, or a plague doctor's first encounter with Angel Island, Reeves's fine eye, ear, and imagination find the imagery, metaphors, and language to create rhythms of history.
