	A Review From In Dissent: Cooper Renner (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
		Nor did Starbuck suffer a revival (as far as I can tell) among the neo-formalists of the '80s and '90s-- an impossibility, really, since the neo's don't seem to have any use for anyone who wrote formally any earlier than the Reagan presidency.
		That "coffin" replaces the "crust" of standard geology suggests something of Starbuck's view-- that the "world" we live upon is constructed upon the lives and accomplishments-- and indeed the corpses-- of the dead.
		Starbuck's recasting of "E pluribus unum" is remarkable both for its utter shift in meaning and its reevalution of the presumed "mass" thinking required of armies, as opposed to the cry of the individual asserting himself.

	Who is George Starbuck, anyway? - By Eric McHenry - Slate Magazine
		Starbuck himself probably would have been tickled by the marketing maneuver—the irony would've appealed to his cynical side.
		Starbuck, who was born in 1931, is actually the reason loyalty oaths are illegal in the United States.
		Starbuck's major poems are all the things major poems should be—subtle, intelligent, moving—but their distinguishing mark is almost always cleverness, and cleverness is not a quality prized in contemporary poets.

	REVIEWS IN BRIEF / Visible Ink
		George Starbuck, a dazzlingly clever and resourceful poet, had a thesaurus for a brain, so there aren't many recurring words in his work.
		The poems in his posthumous collection, "Visible Ink," suggest influences ranging from George Herbert and L.E. Sissman to Rube Goldberg and the Wright brothers; they seem to have been composed at a drafting table rather than a desk.
		Starbuck loved to revivify neglected and marginal poetic forms and to invent new ones.
