(2) YA Illustrated by Berkeley, Jr. Williams & Berkeley, Jr. Williams. American folklorist Chase compiled two stellar collections of European folktales with an unmistakable American backwoods flavor. The robust tales are all told in colorful Appalachian dialect, and the scholarly notes appended are useful for students of folklore as well as storytellers. [Review covers these titles: Grandfather Tales and The Jack Tales.]
