Spare Change for the Crossing, A Last Hike In, and A Last Look Back compose a trilogy of books, recollective in several senses and thematically intertwined, which Peter Weltner wrote in his eightieth and eighty-first years. He regards them together as his final book, a kind of culmination of a lifetime of thought and experience.
