American Tricksters

“When you gaze into a mirror, what do you see? Does the trickster wink back? Whether you say yes or no, William Jackson's book will tickle you. Filled with a motley crew of con men, hucksters, coyotes, loons, and ravens, its tall tales and explorations of American attitudes are well crafted and highly entertaining. American Tricksters illustrates how dark edges can lighten your spirit while tweaking your funny bone. But beware! If you open this book, besides baying at the moon, you might never look in the mirror (or see America) the same way again.”
