Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Study of the Local Literature of the Upper Ohio Valley, Vol. 26: With Especial Reference to the Early Pioneer and Indian Tales, 1820-1840
The present study of early literature in the Ohio Valley has grown out of the writer's interest in the general problems of local literature. It follows, and is in part a development of, an earlier study of West Virginia Literature, written as a thesis for the degree of Master of Arts at West Virginia University in 1913. The interest shown by many readers in the earlier work has been a great encouragement to the writer to make further investigations in the same field.
