Fakta

In "Myths and Legends of Our Own Land — Complete," Charles M. Skinner presents an extensive anthology of American folklore that weaves together the rich tapestry of myths, legends, and tales endemic to the United States. This compendium showcases diverse narratives, from the supernatural and heroic to the whimsical, highlighting Skinner's masterful storytelling and keen eye for regional nuances. His literary style combines a conversational tone with meticulous attention to detail, effectively immersing readers in the cultural and historical contexts of each tale. Positioned within the tradition of American romanticism, the book not only reverberates with a sense of nostalgia but also engages with the growing interest in folklore at the turn of the 20th century, serving as a bridge between oral traditions and literary preservation. Charles M. Skinner was a pioneering American author and journalist, whose deep appreciation for the oral storytelling tradition likely stemmed from his own experiences growing up in a rapidly evolving America. His extensive travels and interactions with various communities ignited his passion for preserving regional stories and folkloric elements, providing insight into the nation's identity. Skinner's work also reflects a broader societal impulse to celebrate and document local heritage during a time of significant change in American society. Readers seeking to immerse themselves in the enchanting world of American mythology and folklore will find "Myths and Legends of Our Own Land — Complete" an invaluable resource. Skinner's narratives not only entertain but also provoke thought about the cultural underpinnings of American society. This comprehensive anthology is a treasure trove for scholars, history enthusiasts, and anyone eager to explore the profound connections between myth, identity, and place.
