Description
The legends in this collection have been and continue to be told in Indiana. There is a voice of authenticity in the texts, and readers will gain an understanding of ways that stories about hauntings, local characters, unique places, and other subjects are actually told by storytellers in Indiana. The introduction is well written, and Baker provides a good overview for ways to understand the legends. There is also an excellent bibliography for further study of this interesting facet of American folklore.
