In 1839 a journalist for the New Orleans Picayune, Matthew C. Field, joined a company of merchants and tourists headed west on the Santa Fe Trail. Leaving Independence, Missouri, early in July "with a few wagons and a carefree spirit," Field recorded his vivid impressions of travel westward on the Santa Fe Trail and, on the return trip, eastward along the Cimarron Route. Written in verse in his journal and in eighty-five articles later published in the Picayune, Field's observations offer the modern reader a unique glimpse of life in the settlements of Mexico and on the Santa Fe Trail.

Matt Field on the Santa Fe Trail, Vol. 29
Classic midwestern yarns such as the story of Paul Bunyan creating an atomic bomb to spearhead a USA WWII victory (seriously!).
An unusual (although welcoming) inclusion in the Pantheon Fairytale and Folklore library. There is a noteworthy absence of traditional motif (consequently, taxonomy). There is a fine line between bravado and braggadocio; much of midwestern "folklore" intentionally overshoots. Enmeshed in this thematic underpinning are some fantastic tales.
