Sommario/riassunto

This book explores the central myths and legends that have formed American culture since its earliest years of settlement, providing a fascinating glimpse into the collective American imagination over the past 400 years through the stories that have shaped it. Special attention is paid to African American folklore, Asian American folklore, and the folklore of other traditions that are often overlooked or marginalized in other studies of the topic.
