The Road From Refuge Ridge

This unusually lyrical collection of poems echoes Argos MacCallum's spirit connection to the land, people, and wildlife of his fifty-year long love affair with Santa Fe and his Refuge Ridge homestead. It is a fine book. -Kendall McCook; author of En Placitas and What Price Paradise Poems are crossroads in The Road from Refuge Ridge. Indeed, Argos MacCallum's work is remarkable for its muted signals and revelations. We watch loneliness encounter joy. We stare as gray meets orange. We even glimpse the living grave. In all, mesmerizing. -Hiram Larew, Poet; author of Undone and Mud Ajar In The Road from Refuge Ridge, Argos MacCallum offers the reader a primer of the denizens, of the culturally and ecologically diverse interface between wildness and humanity found in the high desert farmsteads, villages, towns, and juniper laden barrancas and savannahs of Northern New Mexico. These poems shape themselves into a book of kindnesses and clear seeing, hazard and wonder, peace and vision. This work offers each of us the gift of a cartography of refuge, the map of an all too quickly vanishing road toward home. -Gary Worth Moody; author of The Burnings and Hazards of Grace
