From the Back Cover
"Nancy Roberts's reputation as one of the preeminent authors of American ghost stories is a well-deserved recognition of her estimable ability to weave compelling supernatural tales with a strong sense of history and place. This is certainly true in the newly expanded edition of her Ghosts of the Wild West, seventeen tales of vaporous ghost lights, haunted mesas, phantom gunmen, and reanimated skeletons. It's a book sure to please collectors of Western lore, fans of well-told, old-fashioned ghost tales and, it would seem to me, school librarians looking for just the right book to introduce middle school and high school readers to American folklore."--Michael Norman, coauthor of Historic Haunted America and Haunted Heritage
