3.62/5 Goodreads Out of the Northwoods: The Many Lives of Paul Bunyan, With More Than 100 Logging Camp Tales is a folklore and social history book written by Michael Edmonds and published in October 2009 by the Wisconsin Historical Society Press. Part bibliographic mystery and part cultural history, the book traces how Paul Bunyan evolved from an authentic working-class oral legend shared around 19th-century logging camp stoves into a mass-marketed American pop culture icon.
