Pictorial - Legends, Lore and Secrets of Western New York (American Legends)

Book Synopsis: Listen to the whispered legends of spirits, heroes and traitors hidden in one of New York's most captivating regions.

Tales such as the "Mail-Riding Mamma" of Chautauqua County, who carried both the post and her infant child above her head as she journeyed across perilously-flooded creeks, and the Ossian Giant, who at age 19 stood 7 feet, 6 inches tall and weighed 385 pounds, are vividly narrated by Buffalo storyteller Lorna MacDonald Czarnota.
