Synopsis "tales with a texas twist: original stories and enduring folklore from the lone star state (in English)"

Storytelling is both an art form and a means of passing on significant elements of a culture--the history, the traditions, the humor, the pathos. It is a way of entertaining and being entertained. With this compilation of Texas--and Texanized--favorite myths and legends, award-winning tale teller Donna Ingham applies her own unmistakable voice to traverse her home state through such stories as: >The Coming of the Bluebonnet--an oft-collected Commanche myth about love and sacrifice and the origin of the Texas state flower>The Story Behind the Story--about two early cattlemen and the basis for an episode in Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove>The Life and Times of Pecos Bill--a selection of tales about this legendary folk hero>Diamond Bill--about an east Texas rattlesnake who fought in the Civil War>Cupid Was a Mama's Boy--a Texanized classic Greek myth >And much more
