Susquehanna Legends Collected in Central Pennsylvania by Henry W. Shoemaker
This consisted of a series of short stories about ghosts, hunting, headless track walkers, love found and lost as well as a few other subjects. All are fiction. It's sort of interesting. I liked the horse race and the track walker stories the best. Some of the ghost stories were impossible for me to follow but then I'm not a deep thinker!!
