Mister, You Got Yourself a Horse: Tales of Old-Time Horse Trading

Plains folklorist Roger L. Welsch has edited a lively collection of stories by some master yarnspinners-those old-time traveling horse traders. Told to Federal Writers' Project fieldworkers in the 1930s, these stories cover the span of horse trading: human and equine trickery, orneriness, debility-and generosity. Roger L. Welsch has written numerous books. He delivers a "Postcard from Nebraska" on CBS Sunday Morning.
