In a series of interviews of local Eastern Shore residents during 1970 to 1972, former Salisbury University students and professors collected local legends. For this collection, these stories tell of the strange disappearances of Florence Wingate and a few years later a man named Sambo, both residents of Crapo, Maryland. Most interviews include personal descriptions of the interviewer and informant, and the story.
