Carl Sandburg wrote of Ruth Allison Coates and Waiting for the Westbound, "Yours is a message from a deep part, having accents of rare music--a keepsake for when I want a slant of light on the dark path ahead." Coates' "Breakfast with Nuns" and "Now Are We Here" are classics.
"A talented poet and a memorable collection."
— Judith Hill
