Peter Ladd is an environmentalist, college professor and trauma specialist working mainly with Native people both in the United States and Canada. For many years, he has lived on Grindstone Island and Clayton, New York, along the St. Lawrence River that separates the two countries. He believes strongly in family, empathy and trying to make the world a little better. His poems attempt to accomplish this belief.
"Catching a Ride on Creation" invites readers on a poignant journey through the poetic landscapes of nature, relationships, the sacred, and hope. Within these verses, the author reveals an intimate dance with life experiences, as if plucking inspiration from the ether.
