Rattlesnake Summer

A special limited edition of Rattlesnake Summer, a book of poems by Christopher "Rattlesnake" Vondracek paired with paintings by Luke Gorder. Vondracek takes his readers on a unique tour of South Dakota via sixty-six original poems – one for each county in the state.

Inspired by his time as the South Dakota correspondent for a legal news service, and completed while living a thousand miles away in the nation's capital, Vondracek's latest collection is an unconventional and loving stroll through the varied, and sometimes strange, seasons of his adopted home state.
