As high summer creeps slowly toward autumn, with brown leaves curling and grass going to straw under the relentless sun, somehow these American tales seem to enhance their allure and appropriateness. It is a fact not often stressed in histories of our national literature that some of our first, most popular, and most influential works were, in fact, Fantasies, and that they are as much a part of the American character as anything.
