About this Item

xxvi, 198 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm. ; goldenrod full cloth ; price-clipped dj in mylar. SIGNED by editor Speck on title. Mody Boatright's studies in folklore and the American scene are both generative and significant in themselves. The thirteen essays collected in this volume represent the diversity of his writings. From collections of tall tales to interpretations of American cultural trends, Boatright's folklore studies were often regional but never provincial.

Store Description

The books of an old bookie -- i.e., a book enthusiast and collector for many years. They have become TOO MANY, and it's time to go about selling them. My areas of specialisation are Texana and folklore, with smaller collections of history and children's fiction and non-fiction between 1930 and 1970.

Sale & Shipping Terms

Terms of Sale

This is no Half Price Books nor Strand Bookstore, rather one person selling books as a side hustle and a passion. When you deal with me, you deal with me, not an anonymous clerk. I presume sales to be final except in case of substantial condition discrepancy or lost and strayed shipments, and frown upon buyer's remorse.

Right of cancellation

Shipping Terms

Books will be wrapped securely in unused newspaper stock and shipped in bubble-padded mailing envelopes. Additional bubble-wrap may be included for large, heavy, or specially fragile items. After multiple instances of the US Post Awful losing books for me (it averaged about one per month) I have changed to UPS for US domestic shipments. Unfortunately, this also means I CANNOT ship to Post Office box addresses any longer (the delivery trucks won't fit into the little boxes) and I have to charge more S&H than I used.

I send international shipments via the broker Global Post, at International First Class rates. This will of necessity delay delivery at times.
