Description

Cultural Writing. What we read here is a sifting of fact and imagination from what Harry has told us about his boyhood in the Pacific Northwest. There are few traces left of the young Smith and Darrin Daniel has made some sense of the years 1928 through 1949, from Harry claiming to be fathered by Aleister Crowley, to documenting what little is known of his mother, father, grandfather, to his earliest anthropological recordings, donated with artifacts and notebooks to the University of Washington. Out of all the speculation, mythology and plain curiosity, the packet named Harry Everitt Smith begins to reveal itself. Perfectbound chapbook.
