‎The Baby on the Car Roof and 222 More Urban Legends‎

‎New York New York U.S.A.: Black Dog & Leventhal Publishers Incorporated 2000. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 12mo - over 6�" - 7�" tall. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine bright pages. NO writing marks or tears. 269 pages. Synopsis Sensational but true or are they The urban legends in this compilation will make you smile giggle groan in disgust empathize with tragedy or flat out laugh out loud. They are irresistibly intriguing packed with wit allegory and bizarre twist and turns and they're just plausible enough to hold our fascination. While urban legends are often fiction from a twisted mind they continue to circulate as truth; "This happened to a friend of a friend." Perhaps you have already heard a few of the stories as truly happening to a brother of your cousin's roommate or some other combination of once removed. Common variations and possible story basis reveal the real saga behind the legend and often poke fun at the media outlets that print them as fact. Urban legends share an uncanny ability to travel by word of mouth - often with a few substitutions catering to the needs of whoever is telling them. It's the intriguing nature of the stories - distinctly dark invariably humorous - on which they thrive. They play on our collective fears and anxieties and part of their lure is that no one can be sure which stories are true which are elaborate embellishments of fact and which are entirely made up by seasoned storytellers to fill their repertoire. Some are famed others are lesser known. The urban legends here are arranged by genre from the infamous baby that was left on the car roof during a trip to John Wayne dodging the draft - plus hundreds more strange-but-not-perhaps-not-completely untrue anecdotes. The Baby on the Car Roof offers us a glimpse of pop culture's perverse fantasy life as well as an authoritative reference of contemporary folklore with stories so seductive that they may in the end have happened to a friend of yours. For more urban legends check out Alligators in the Sewer and 222 Other Urban Legends also by Thomas J. Craughwell. Biography Thomas J. Craughwell has written every edition of the Book Lover's Page-A-Day Calendar since it first appeared in 1995. He is the author of Every Eye Beholds You: A World Anthology of Prayer which was a Main Selection of Book-of-the-Month Club and Quality Paperback Book Club and a selection of History Book Club.
