Subject: Folklore: Book/Treasury of Western Folklore From: Sorcha Date: 08 Apr 03 - 11:32 AM Used book sale time again. This one is a minimum bid of $10.00. This is a thick hardback, "A Treasury of Western Folklore", edited by B.A. Botkin. Published by Bonanza in 1980. This is a great book filled with tall tales, anecdotes, yarns, humor, local legends, folklore & more. Bid deadline is 2PM Mountain Time, April 12. If interested, post bids in this thread and I will do the bidding at the library for the winner. I'll pay shipping in US. |

Subject: RE: Folklore: Book/Treasury of Western Folklore From: Allan C. Date: 08 Apr 03 - 01:58 PM I found one of these back in December and finally finished reading it just a few weeks ago. The most of the stories are absolutely wonderful. Many are unlikely to be found anywhere else (without studious digging). There's a nice collection of songs in it, too - some interesting ones of which I have not seen mention before. |
