From the publisher
First line
Some people say that Paul Bunyan wasn't much taller than an ordinary house.
From the rear cover
Here are the most robust characters in American legend. Told by a poet with a poet's ear for the impact of words, these American mavericks walk and talk accross the pages in a free, wide way, as they walked and talked accross the free, wide America of pioneer days.
