Description
Rodney Dale (au); George Melly (fr); Bill Tidy (il). Rodney Dale started collecting Urban Legends half a century ago -- long before they were identified as such. This rich collection, with its introduction to the sorts of tales we tell, will enthrall & amuse both casual browsers & students of contemporary lore. Uncle Joe’s ashes baked in a cake (Delicious!); Granny’s corpse stolen along with the family car; sewers alive with alligators . . . all these alleged occurrences -- & many, many others -- are the stuff of urban legend: the extraordinary things that you’re told happen to that elusive ‘friend of a friend’ (foaf); someone whom you can never pin down, however hard you try. This book updates & augments the original 1978 edition.
