Keep: I added contemporary reviews from The Fort Worth Star-Telegram and The Oklahoma Star. The book is pretty widely quoted; Poole coined the phrase "He who laughs, lasts." — Toughpigs (talk) 15:10, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but improve The article is lacking enough citations from reliable sources but a quick google search brings up mosttly listings of where to get the book, but there are several results that specifically quote the book. Appears to me to meet WP:books rule #1. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Star7924 (talk • contribs) 16:23, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - This meets the basic standards for notability. There is no viable merge target so this needs to be expanded. Archrogue (talk) 19:12, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep per Toughpigs' reviews and WP:OLDBOOK. It's obscure, but two reviews and quotations in a book I just added to the further reading just about gets it notability IMO. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 18:05, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
