A Boyhood Dream Realized: : Half a Century of Texas Culture, One Newspaper Column at a Time (Texas Folklore Society Extra Book, Band 27) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This collection of columns from the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal is Texas Folklore Society Extra Book #27.  The editorial columns included herein tell stories, and tell about telling stories. They also reflect boyhood dreams . . . and foolishness, fears, beliefs, customs, traditions, and sometimes things that are no longer part of our culture but we wish were. All reflect what was&;and for many, still is&;important. If &;the traditional knowledge of a culture&; is how we define what folklore is, this volume provides an intimate look at the folklore of Lubbock, Texas, and the greater area of the South Plains.

You don&;t have to be an avid reader of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, or even be from Lubbock or know where Moran is to relate to the issues covered in these pieces.
