More Kitteredge, please
I love Bill Kitteredge as a storyteller, thinker, and even as a prophet. His vision of how story informs ethics is among the most sane approaches I've read, both to the art and role of storytelling and to ethics itself. His applicaton of his ethos to life in the West is sage. I've read Kitteredge's previous books and this book, *Taking Care* is a well-wrought distillation of Kittredge's former books with some fine tuning.

I rate this book as I do because just over half the book is Kittredge's writing. The rest is an essay by Scott Slovic which reviews Kittredge and covers too much of the same ground I just read in Kittredge's own writing, followed by a helpful and comprehensive bibliography. Slovic does good work. But, I wanted more Kittredge.

I have one last complaint: the book is published as a *Credo* book, apparently part of a series. But, I'm not sure. Nowhere does this book say anything about other writers contributing to the series, whether in the past or the future. I would be excited to read other writers' credos, especially if they were writers I was unfamiliar with. But, if I were familiar with the writer and if the Credo book were like this one, a revisit to previously published stories and ideas, then I wouldn't buy it.
