A wonderfully distinctive treasury of America’s storytelling traditions—heroes and heroines, tall tales, notorious characters, curious beliefs, and superstitions gathered into one richly illustrated volume.
What makes this book special is its remarkable variety. The Hatfield–McCoy feud shares its pages with Greek-American traditions and fishermen’s superstitions, revealing how family stories, regional history, and customs carried across oceans become part of American folklore.
An inviting book for anyone fascinated by the place where history meets imagination. Open it for one story, and find yourself exploring a dozen more—a delightful addition to a folklore collection or a thoughtful gift for an endlessly curious reader.
