Paul Bunyan
Esther Shephard, Rockwell Kent (Illustrator)
"The wonderful adventures of Paul Bunyan, the lumberjack's Hercules, have been told for years through the great timber belt of the the North - how he dug the Columbia River for a log chute to the ocean, built a bunkhouse so tall that the last seven stories had to be put on hinges to let the moon go by, and performed hundreds more of his marvelous feats. Mrs. Shephard's version of the exploits of Paul Bunyan and his blue ox, Babe, has for years been a classic. This new edition is lavishly illustrated with twenty-four full-page drawings and numerous smaller ones by Rockwell Kent. Mr. Kent has long been enthusiastic about this book, and his illustrations have the robust and magnificent quality of the stories themselves. Here is the great epic of the American frontier superbly told both in story and in picture." -- Dust Jacket
