The tales included in this volume are just as absorbing and intriguing as those that have appeared in the previous volumes, and they bring the reader once again back to a time when the state's mountains were alive with wolves, mountain lions, Indians, ghosts, witches and other colorful characters of a forgotten age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this volume: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGod's Warriors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig Cats of the Big Woods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Beaver Dam Witch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBear Tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Last Packs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWolf Marauders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Last Panthers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnd of an Era\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePennsylvania's Boys in Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Dark and Bloody Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Times They Are a-Changin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePig's Ear?

Frazier was born and raised in Centre Hall, Centre County, where he says he grew up in a \"Tom Sawyer sort of way\", later graduating with a BS from Penn State in 1967, and then an MBA from Rider University in New Jersey in 1978. Some of the fondest memories of his boyhood include explorations of out-of-the-way spots in the mountains and accounts of the legends that seem to cling to them, and beginning in 1970 he began collecting those same kind of anecdotes from all over the state; ranging from the Blue Mountains of Berks and Lehigh Counties, the South Mountains of Adams County, the \"Black Forest\" area of Potter and Tioga Counties, the Alleghenies of Clearfield and Blair Counties, and the other counties in the middle. He has compiled his vast collection of tales into a series titled Pennsylvania Fireside Tales. This volume is a continuation of his work, written in a format that the average reader can enjoy, especially those who love the green valleys and cloud-covered mountain peaks of Pennsylvania as much as he does.","brand":"Catamount Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51779037462802,"sku":"9798888193051","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_e76baf13-e16a-48b9-a2ca-683f22efb827.jpg?v=1765365571","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/pennsylvania-fireside-tales-volume-8-9798888193051","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
