Verifiablity of info???

I found nothing when I searched "Rowley" in this book http://books.google.com/books?id=AhoNAAAAYAAJ Hemingway, Abby Maria, editor. "Poets and Poetry of Vermont" Yet it is mentioned first as a book mentioning him in references. So now I'm wondering about the verifiability of other info about him in this article. I also couldn't find anything about a poem with words "set or setting the hills on fire" in an internet search or a search of a couple books that had a couple of his poems. What is that from? Perhaps some linked sources could be used since there is some info on the web about him. There is an anonymous blogger using this Thomas Rowley's name and saying all sorts of false things, so it's important that no one think this wiki article is also unverifiable.

It is (as referenced) in Volume 29 of Abby Maria's books (not the volume link you showed), which I believe read at the California Sutro library in SF. Regional poets are not all online so don't let that be your guide. Verifiable sources are already noted. Goldenrowley (talk) 02:01, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Something tells me you might know. Maybe you should put up a web page :-) 02:42, 5 February 2008 (UTC)Carolmooredc {talk}

The Danby book by Williams (added today under references) has printed several of his poems at the back section. Goldenrowley (talk) 02:58, 5 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
