Description

I’ll Tell You a Tale is a garland of a few of Frank Dobie’s absolute best writing, put together by Isabel Gaddis, considered one of his former students on the University of Texas. The tales included are the ones the creator himself liked absolute best, and he even rewrote a few of them especially for this anthology. Ben Carlton Mead has contributed 32 original line drawings to illustrate the stories.

These tales spring from the soil and folklore of our land; but more than this, they make the readers recent with the days, filling us with the wonder of something past and yet still with us. They’re arranged topically into sections whose titles speak for them: “The Longhorn Breed,” “Mustangs and Mustangers,” “The Saga of the Saddle,” “Characters and Happenings of Long Ago,” “Animals of the Wild,” “In Realms of Gold,” and “Ironies.”
