"Short Takes presents seventy-six writers whose range and style demonstrate the myriad ways we humans have of telling our truths. Themes develop and collide with one another: musings about baseball and books, family and history, war and work, science and the seasons. Each short - whether a few paragraphs or reaching 2,000 words, and reflecting almost every way nonfiction can be written - invites us to experience the power of the small to move, persuade, and change us."--Jacket.
