Curt Hinkleman came alive in the fertile plains of New England after his family escaped Germany. His restless vigor waned as he battled his father's homeland, and his return brought with it the blessings of love and family. These represented his new spiritual weapons. At the time, Curt did not know how badly he needed them.Marsh Kane was a proper lady from an established family. She shirked societal expectations as her path ebbed toward a basic, subsistence lifestyle. This path was not the one envisioned by her parents. Tragedy tested her resolve, but family kept her whole.A Simple Kind of Man is the story of a family melding, becoming a single living entity that sometimes suffers setbacks, but always retains the capacity to actualize its collective power."As for A Simple Kind of Man, I'm extremely impressed. An alternate title could have been Lessons on Life, for this work does, indeed, convey many lessons on life. The message of A Simple Kind of Man is much the same as Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Simple Man" (and the phrase "a simple kind of man" appears a goodly number of times in the lyrics of the song). Graham is an exceptionally fine writer. The manner in which he weaves the personalities of those individuals into his intriguing story through time and space, as well as the skillful way that he gives them their own, distinct voices, is some mighty powerful wordsmithing." -Jim Price, author of One Persian's Pathway
