Out of the Northwoods:
The Many Lives of Paul Bunyan
Michael Edmonds
Everyone has heard tall tales about the lumberjack hero Paul Bunyan and his big blue ox,
but Michael Edmonds tells the true tale behind Bunyan's origins in the
Wisconsin northwoods. It includes eyewitness accounts of how the first
Bunyan stories were shared on frigid winter nights around logging camp
stoves in the Wisconsin pinery. It describes where the tales began, how they moved
out of the forest and into print, and why publication changed them forever.
