An influential figure in American humor and folklore, Leland was a well-educated journalist and traveler who delved into the study of languages and folk traditions. He is best known for his comic work, Hans Breitmann's Ballads, and his involvement in two conflicts. His notable work, Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches, later emerged as a key text for Neopaganism. Leland's diverse interests and contributions reflect a rich engagement with both American and European cultural narratives.
