A volume of genuine American folklore. These adventures of Pecos Bill constitute a part of the Saga of the Cowboy. They are collected from the annals of the campfire and the roundup. They preserve the glory of the days when men were men, and when imagination and wonder rode hand in hand to conquest and to undying fame. About the person of Pecos Bill have been told - and still are being told - the best of the tall yarns that have survived the old Frontier days. Pecos Bill is a gentleman at heart, and directs his course by the common-sense, homely virtues of the Frontier. He represents the best and most characteristic broad humor of America.
