Published in 1916, Juniata Memories was Henry W. Shoemakers eighth volume of Pennsylvania folklore. Written in the authors typical literary style, this volume includes twentysix legends set in Central Pennsylvania and the Juniata Valley. These stories, secured from old people, hermits, farmers, lumbermen, teamsters, hostlers, hunters, trappers, old soldiers, and their ladies, prominently feature the Stone, Kishacoquillas, and Penns Valleys and the many towns that lie within and around them, such as Huntingdon, Lewistown, and Selinsgrove. The stories share a common theme with those in many of Shoemakers other volumes, portraying Pennsylvanias pioneers as having a decidedly spiritual connection with nature.Juniata Memories includes some of Shoemakers bestknown legends, such as NitaNee: A Tradition of a Juniata Maiden (the story of Mount Nittanys formation in Centre County) and The Standing Stone: A Legend of the Ancient Oneidas (set in Huntingdon County). These popular tales stand alongside Shoemakers telling of famous area love stories, ghost lore, supposed Indian legends, hunting lore, and even a story of buried treasure along the Susquehanna River. The volume is illustrated with scenic turnofthecentury photographs taken by the Pennsylvania Railroads official photographer.
