- Episode Description
- Yarns that bring out human characteristics and illustrate customs and manners and social conditions are in a way as important historically as state papers. Moreover a yarn, if it's a good one has flavor and people have a right to enjoy the taste of their food as well as to be nourished by it. Narrative largely from J. Frank Dobie's The Flavor of Texas; songs include The Devil in Hell.
