4.0 The Vanishing Hitchhiker: American Urban Legends and Their Meanings
text The Vanishing Hitchhiker: American Urban Legends and Their Meanings
I loved this book. This is what we were forced to use before snopes came along, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth.It's funny to think that urban legends used to be primarily transmitted by mouth.
