Annotation:
Spur-of-the-Cock is now available as a free e-book at the UNT Digital Library and The Portal to Texas History.
The title of this volume comes from an essay by Hugh M. Taylor, "Spur-of-the-Cock: Hero of the Mayo Indians." An old New Mexican folk play, "Canto del Niño Perdido," edited by Mary R. Van Stone and E. R. Sims is included, followed by folk names of Texas cacti, cats and the occult, and old-time Negro proverbs by J. Mason Brewer.
