## Summary

In wanting to bring you a distinctively different Christmas greeting for 1953--as well as one that is typically Texan--The Steck Company turned quite naturally to Texas’ most distinguished folklorist, J. Frank Dobie. His writings of the past quarter century have turned the attention of people in many lands to the rich folklore of the Southwest. Dobie’s recollections of three boyhood Christmases begin this volume. As an added fillip, his colorful story of the Bowie knife is included.
