Download or read book THE LEGENDS OF TEXAS written by J. Frank Dobie and published by Pelican Publishing Company. This book was released on 1995-08-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's treasure buried beneath Texas soil or stowed in caves covered over by stones. It might be the mother lode that's waiting to be uncovered or some Spanish pirate's chest of jewels and doubloons. Nearby a ghostly figure walks the dunes, or is it just an illusion brought on by the approaching dust storm? In this new mass market edition, J. Frank Dobie has collected accounts of some of the best known tales of booty hidden in Texas hill and dale as well as some eerie stories and the origins of Texas flowers, names, and streams. You will learn about "The Enchanted Rock in Llano County," "Lafitte's Treasure Vault," and "The Holy Spring of Father Margil at Nacogdoches." These lively stories reveal the love for adventure, independence, and mystery that has made Texas the state it is. And just as Dobie hoped, with these tales readers from all over can see the "richness of their own traditions." Dobie believed that worthwhile literature about this region had to be derived from an understanding of its life, lore, and history. Legends of Texas indirectly led to the founding of the Texas Folklore Society, the nation's second oldest folklore organization.

Download or read book A Treasury of Nebraska Pioneer Folklore written by Roger L. Welsch and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1966-01-01 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folklore tells us something about almost every aspect of the life of the people. This rich and entertaining collection of Nebraska pioneer folklore, taken largely from the Nebraska Folklore Pamphlets issued by the Federal Writers' Project in the 1930s, is intended first and foremost for the general reader, for the people whose heritage it is. Songs of trail and prairie and of the Farmers' Alliance, white man's yarns and Indian tales, pioneer Nebraska folk customs, sayings, proverbs, beliefs, children's games, cooking, and cures—these "wondrously entertaining kaleidoscopic reflections of the people and environment that were inspirations of the classic literature of Mari Sandoz and Willa Cather—to name two—could be a model for Americana collectors in other states to emulate. . . . A treasury indeed."—King Features Syndicate "Parade of Books."

This book was released on 2023-08-12 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johann David Wyss' 'The Swiss Family Robinson; or Adventures in a Desert Island' is a classic novel that follows the survival and adventures of a Swiss family shipwrecked on a deserted island. The book is written in a descriptive and didactic style, detailing the family's ingenious efforts to overcome challenges and create a sustainable life on the island. Set in the context of 19th-century adventure literature, Wyss' work showcases themes of resourcefulness, family unity, and the triumph of human spirit amidst adversity. The story is filled with exciting escapades and moral lessons, making it a timeless tale for readers of all ages. The vivid imagery and detailed exploration of the island environment add depth to the narrative, engaging readers in the family's journey of survival and self-discovery. Johann David Wyss, a Swiss author and educational reformer, drew inspiration from his own beliefs and experiences to create a story that emphasizes the values of resilience, ingenuity, and cooperation. His background in education and storytelling shines through in the narrative, making 'The Swiss Family Robinson' both entertaining and insightful. I highly recommend this book to readers who enjoy adventure stories, nature-themed literature, and tales of human perseverance. Wyss' novel is a captivating blend of adventure, survival, and moral reflection that continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.

Download or read book Derbyshire Folk Tales written by Pete Castle and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Passed down from generation to generation, many of Derbyshire's most popular folk tales are gathered together here for the first time. Ranging from stories specific to the region, such as 'The Derby Ram', to others which are local versions of well-known classics, like 'Beauty and the Beast', all of the tales in this collection are rooted in Derbyshire's past. Written to recreate the oral traditions that made these anecdotes popular, this book provides entertainment for all. Richly illustrated with original drawings, accounts of love, loss, heroes and villains are all brought to life through vivid descriptions that have survived for several centuries. These tales have been adapted to make them accessible, enjoyable and, at times, very relevant to contemporary readers.
