Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair dj. Illustrated by Glen Rounds (illustrator). 3rd printing. (price-clipped) [minor wear and slight discoloration to cloth at spine ends, otherwise a good solid clean book; jacket is heavily browned at edges and along spine, scuffed on front panel, large ragged piece missing from top of spine, much smaller piece missing from base of spine, several clumsily-executed internal tape-repairs]. (pen and ink drawings) One of the harder-to-find books by Randolph, described in the jacket blurb as "probably the best known collector of authentic Ozark folklore." The book brings together hundreds of tales from a wide variety of sources: many "were contributed by elderly folk in the more isolated sections of the Ozarks, [while] some have been printed in the country weeklies, and a few find their way into the metropolitan press. Some of the wildest absurdities are exaggerated accounts of the narrator's own adventures, or the exploits of men whom he has known personally. Others are strangely garbled fragments of pioneer history and legend.".
