Folktales from the African American Appalachian tradition. Told by Lyn Ford, one of America's busiest touring storytellers. The power of Lyn's storytelling comes straight out of her family heritage, which is the content of this, her first book. Here she tells how she learned stories from her father and grandfather--and she includes many of the stories they told her.
