A Treasury of Western Folklore

by B.A. Botkin, Bernard DeVoto

Foreword by Bernard De Voto. The best compilation of the folklore and legends of the American West ever put together--792 pages including the music to folk songs of the West, and capped by a comprehensive three-column index. A staggering work of scholarship. Clean, unmarked and unclipped in a Brodart jacket cover. (This copy is from the fabled Bookman's Alley, with Roger Carlosn's pencilled price still present on the first leaf.)
