Produktbeschreibung

This Book, titled, "From Hospital To High" or "Here Is A Steve", A Story of Steven Reise, Plus, Poetry Analysis and Poems by yours truly, Steven Paul Reise, actually consists of three separate sections. Section 1, as I will refer to it, consists of the Foreword/Introduction/Acknowledgements/Philosophies and Page 1 of Volume 1 of my memoir, "Here Is A Steve". This first volume, probably of four or five volumes of the autobiography of my life, is comprised of: 1. Earliest Memories (of my childhood) and, 2. Scrap Book Years, entailing my scholastic and athletic achievements up to and including high school. Section 2: Is "my first book ever", and is entitled, "From Hospital To High".

This would have taken place sometime in the fall of 1969 and spring of 1970. This book encompasses the years from my birth to the age of twelve. Section 3: Has a cover with labels stating: Steve Reise English Poetry >The poetry notebook was written in Junior High School around 1970-1972.

As I have stated, I will be writing a memoir of my life which may encapsulate four or five volumes. Volume 1 should be published in early spring of of 2024.

Without further ado, here we go...
