DESCRIPTION

The title of this volume comes from an essay by Hugh M. Taylor, "Spur-of-the-Cock: Hero of the Mayo Indians." An old New Mexican folk play, "Canto del Nino Perdido," edited by Mary R. Van Stone and E. R. Sims is included, followed by folk names of Texas cacti, cats and the occult, and old-time black proverbs by J. Mason Brewer.
