Description
John Henry, based on the famous African American folk ballad, this story tells of the legendary contest to the death between a spirited man with a hammer and a steam drill to build a tunnel through the Allegheny Mountains of West Virginia. Swamp Angel, an original tall tale about Angelica Longrider, better known as Swamp Angel, the greatest woodswoman in Tennessee history. When a huge bear, Thundering Tarnation, can't control his bottomless appetite for settlers' grub, she musters up all her strength of body and heart to tackle him.
