About the Book

Robert M. Chute’s latest poems, found here in The Bragdon Hill Affair, are paeans to the land, rocks, water and trees surrounding his home. We count on Chute for calm observation and a long outlook on life. During these days of stressful news, his existence and poetry and the subjects reflected in his poetry are antidotes to anxiety.
About the author
Robert M. Chute, a native of Naples, Maine, was educated, according to Chute, with varying degrees of success, at Fryeburg Academy, the University of Maine, and Johns Hopkins University. He served in the U.S. Air Force in WWII. In 1962 at Bates College he was Chairman of the Biology Department. Wearing his scientific hat, he wrote Introduction to Biology and Environmental Insight both published by Harper and Row. During the 1960s he produced and edited a mimeograph poetry magazine, The Small Pond. Research in and Professing of Biology supported his poetry habit until retirement from Bates College in 1993. He received the Rhine Humanities Council chapbook award for Samuel Sewall Sails for Home and the Beloit Poetry Journal’s Chad Walsh Award for the poem, “Heat Wave in Concord.” ​Chute was awarded the 2011 Distinguished Achievement Award by the Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance. During the Vietnam War he ran as an independent protest candidate for the U. S. House and continues as an active supporter of Veterans for Peace.

What our Customers say

Nancy E. Randolph, JWB owner, markets my titles on a wide scale. She also sets up book signings. I find it infinitely more enjoyable and rewarding to work with this Maine-based publisher than to deal with national publishers from out-of-state.
Finally, JWB does not publish just any aspiring author. Randolph is very selective, accepting only material that she is convinced will sell. I highly recommend JWB to any author.
