Recorded for the first time ever, here are ten of the wise and witty spoken word presentations at the 90th annual meeting of the legendary Texas Folklore Society featuring a special tribute to teacher, writer, and Pecos cowboy Paul Patterson by Elmer Kelton and two others. Subjects include early radio DJs, peddlers, cow chips, funeral homes, crazy women in the rafters, and much more.
You don't need to be Texan to enjoy this nostalgic, often funny, often poignant storytelling.
Music by the East Texas String Ensemble.
Winner of a Violet Crown Book Award from the Writers' League of Texas and introduced by singer/songwriter/folklorist Michael Martin Murphey.

The art of folklore isn't just about Pecos Bill anymore. In this comfortable and informative collection the celebration of oral traditions is expanded with segments on baby lore, funeral homes, Hispanic folk customs, and grandparenting—among others. The voices, accents, and tones of all the presenters bespeak their interest in and love of common men and women. But the folklorists themselves are anything but common. They are keen listeners and observers of the world. The members of the Texas Folklore Society believe that everybody has a tale to tell and every tale is as big as Texas. Some of the best are in this collection. B.P. © AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine—Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
