DESCRIPTION
This Publication of the Texas Folklore Society examines how Texans of many races have shaped their lives and shaped the state. Among the pages are backward glances to post-war life in East Texas, descriptions of early recreations and games that children have played from pioneer days to the present, a friendly account of the hill people near Austin, a reminiscence of ranching life among the early Spanish Texans in the West. There are stories long current among the people, a celebration of frijoles, and a recollection of the wonders of yogi oil.
