Frazier, born and raised in Centre Hall, Centre County, holds a BS from Penn State and an MBA from Rider University. Growing up in a “Tom Sawyer” sort of way, he has always loved the Pennsylvania mountains and, starting in 1970, has collected their folktales and legends for over fifty years,. He self-published them in a series of eight volumes titled \u003ci\u003ePennsylvania Fireside Tales\u003c\/i\u003e. Since the tales often sound “far-fetched” today, the author takes on the role of an investigative reporter to explore their origins, writing in a format that the average reader can enjoy.  In 2024 he became a published author when Sunbury Press in Mechanicsburg came out with his three-volume series titled \u003ci\u003ePennsylvania Mountain Landmarks\u003c\/i\u003e – subtitled “an armchair journey to some of the most unusual and inaccessible landmarks in the Pennsylvania mountains and the history and legends that surround them. Sunbury Press has also published expanded and improved versions of all eight volumes of the author’s \u003ci\u003ePennsylvania Fireside Tales\u003c\/i\u003e series, with plans to also publish  his \u003ci\u003ePennsylvania Fireside Ghost Tales\u003c\/i\u003e.

our life's span seems extended, and we seem less mortal.   It is with this background, then, that this second volume of Pennsylvania fireside tales is presented for the public's reading enjoyment.  As explained in the first volume of this series, the title \"fireside tales\" comes from the fact that these stories and legends are variants of, or are exactly like, episodes that were related by early settlers sitting around their fireplaces on cold winter evenings when story-telling was the only form of entertainment by which to relax.  Return now to those days of old when the pace was slower and life was harder.  Keep in mind, however, that people then seemed content with their lot, finding pleasure in simple things like a wolf's howl, a panther's cry, a firefly's glow, or a flaming sunset sinking slowly behind the everlasting hills. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eIn this volume:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe Black Ghost of Scotia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eJuniata Gap\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThrough the Veil\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSnakes, Snakes, Snakes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe Lower Fort\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSpellbound\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eLast of the Big Shots\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eHaunts of the Highway\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eMore Snakes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eLittle Red Riding Hood?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBurned at the Stake\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eRidden\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eDead for Three Days?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eMollie Maguire Memories\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eSitting with the Dead\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe Throwback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBloody Run\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBeyond Belief\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eJack’s Narrows\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eNights in the Colby Narrows\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eWestern Pennsylvania Wolf Days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eby \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sunburypress.com\/collections\/jeffrey-frazier\"\u003eJeffrey R Frazier\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePage Count: 200\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 6 x 9\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: April 16, 2024\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Catamount Press\u003cbr\u003eGenre: History\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNATURE \/ Ecosystems \u0026amp;

Today that era still seems to beckon to us from the depths of cool mountain hollows and from the windy heights of Pennsylvania’s tradition-steeped peaks.  And as the frantic pace of modern-day life increases, the allure of the old tales seems to grow stronger, drawing us back to a seemingly pleasanter and slower time when a good storyteller was appreciated as much as a good book is today.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eIn this volume:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill-o’-the-Wisp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Ghostly Lantern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePunxsutawney\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Trophy Buck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGod’s Warriors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMan’s Best Friend(ly Ghost)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaven’s Knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig Cats of the Big Woods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Beaver Dam Witch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCouncil Rocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrozen in Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpitzbuben\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaids of the Mist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBear Tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite Lady of the Gyp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStragglers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eby \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sunburypress.com\/collections\/jeffrey-frazier\"\u003eJeffrey R Frazier\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePage Count: 198\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 6 x 9\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: August 20, 2024\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Catamount Press\u003cbr\u003eGenre: History\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNATURE \/ Ecosystems \u0026amp; Habitats \/ Mountains\u003cbr\u003eHISTORY \/ United States \/ State \u0026amp; Local \/ Middle Atlantic (PA)\u003cbr\u003eFICTION \/ Fairy Tales, Folk Tales \u0026amp; Mythology\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jeffrey R Frazier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":42603445846109,"sku":"9798888191538","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/files\/PFTv4_fc.jpg?v=1724212291"},{"product_id":"pennsylvania-fireside-tales-volume-5","title":"Pennsylvania Fireside Tales Volume 5","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnyone wishing to unlock the secrets behind Pennsylvania’s treasure trove of old-time legends and folktales should read this book and its predecessors.

Those who incline to do so will also be driven to know what’s around that next bend in the trail and to discover the secrets that await.  This volume, like its predecessors, offers readers suggestions to satisfy their wanderlust and provides directions to those places.  For example, in this fourth volume, readers might be lured to the Indian Steps, The Devil’s Chair, Witches Hill, The Bloody Rock, or to Pennsylvania’s own Stonehenges.  Photos of each of these and of the other sites described in this volume are included to enhance the reader’s armchair experience, as are the interesting historical accounts and human-interest stories that surround the landmarks and add to their appeal. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eIn this volume:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome Pennsylvania Stonehenges (Northampton and Centre Counties)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Devil’s Chair (Mifflin County)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Landmarks in Elk State Forest (Elk County)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLewistown Narrows (Mifflin County)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndian Steps—Revisited (Huntingdon and Centre Counties)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bloody Rock (Wyoming County)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWitches’ Hill (Berks and Somerset Counties)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalf King’s Rocks (Fayette County)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eby \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sunburypress.com\/collections\/jeffrey-frazier\"\u003eJeffrey R Frazier\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePage Count: 108\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 6 x 9\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: September 30, 2025\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Catamount Press\u003cbr\u003eGenre: History\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNATURE \/ Ecosystems \u0026amp;
