Chapbooks became popular in 19th Century England and preserved some of the imaginative English literature in the midst of a climate that was hostile to the fanciful mind.
Chapbooks have become somewhat popular again, because of the affordability of their brief format.

This collection of Irish (okay, maybe pseudo-Irish) poems, sayings, and humor intends no harm.
The Husbandman
A 14-strophe poetic narrative of biblical history written in a style akin to Calvin Miller’s The Singer (apologies to Mr. Miller). Beginning with Creation it culminates with the promised Second Coming of Christ. Free verse that has a repeating refrain that climaxes in a song of praise.
