Thread Name: How reliable is Folk History ?
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: How reliable is Folk History ?
Howard,
"Folk process" is covered by "Who wrote it?"
All historical documents can be changed (re-written), none are set in stone, either literally or metaphorically; a half-decent mason can change a carved inscription which even the keenest eye can miss.
If the will is there, whole libraries can be edited.
