Speedball's Missing Leg

Larry Campbell was born in Springfield, and grew up in East Peoria, IL. He built a home and has lived on five acres of land outside of Mackinaw since 1972. While he considers himself to be primarily a visual artist, his other ventures include woodworking, gardening, and beekeeping. In 1982 he began keeping a series of notebook journals with both visual and written content and started seriously writing poetry in 1990. This is his first book of collected poems. He has been a member of the Peoria Poetry Club since October 2016.
