American Myths and Legends, Volume 1 by Charles M. Skinner audiobook.
Genre: folklore
American Myths and Legends, Volume 1 gathers a wide-ranging set of American folktales as retold by journalist and folklorist Charles M. Skinner, a writer whose collections helped fix many regional stories in the popular imagination. Framed as a follow-up to his larger series Myths and Legends of Our Own Land, this first volume roams from lonely New England woods and stormy coasts to village greens, rocky ledges, and shadowed byways where the past still seems close to the present. Across these tales, ordinary people brush against the uncanny: warning signs in the natural world, places with long memories, spirits and strange visitors, and local heroes whose courage or stubbornness becomes part of community lore. Skinner's voice balances campfire immediacy with a collector's curiosity, treating each story as both entertainment and a clue to how Americans have explained danger, luck, grief, and wonder. The central tension is constant: skepticism versus belief, and the pull between modern life and the older stories that keep resurfacing whenever the night gets quiet and the landscape starts to speak.
