Scott T. Starbuck's THE OTHER HISTORY puts the poet's lens on the real buried underneath suburban legends of Christopher Columbus "discovering" America and making it a better place, the illusion that hard work in society will commonly be rewarded with material and spiritual success, that corporate and political leadership will figure things out for the common good, and that modern capitalist culture's onslaught on wild places and wild animals is sustainable. His book refutes these lies by blending news reports with the deeper poetic flow of human feeling that has been "unreported, underreported," or silenced in popular media and textbooks.
