520    Publisher's description: This two-volume collection of 
       folktales represents some of the finest examples of 
       American oral tradition. Drawn from the largest archive of
       American folk culture, The American Folklife Center at the
       Library of Congress, the first-of-its-kind set includes 
       magic tales, legends, jokes, tall tales, and personal 
       narratives -- over 200 in all, many of which have never 
       been previously transcribed or published. Eminent 
       folklorist and award-winning author Carl Lindahl selected 
       and transcribed over 200 recording sessions -- many from 
       the 1920s and 1930s -- that span the twentieth century, 
       including recent material drawn from the September 11th 
       project. This varied collection is organized in chapters 
       by storyteller, tale type, or region, representing diverse
       American cultures from Appalachia and the Midwest to 
       Native American and Latino traditions. Each chapter begins
       by discussing the storytellers and their oral traditions, 
       and then introduces and presents each tale, so that the 
       collection is equally accessible to high school students, 
       general readers, or scholars. Multiple indexes further aid
       in locating tales by motif and tale type, storyteller, and
       geographical origin.
