         Re:   Americana Publishing, Inc. 2004 Consultant Stock Plan
               -----------------------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have acted as counsel to Americana Publishing, Inc., a Colorado
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing with
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 of the
Company's registration statement on Form S-8 relating to 3,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, par value $0.001(the "Shares"), which may be issued upon
exercise of options or otherwise granted in connection with the Americana Publishing,
Inc. 2004 Consultant Stock Plan (the "Plan").

         In connection with that registration, we have reviewed the proceedings
of the Board of Directors of the Company relating to the registration and
proposed issuance of the Shares, the Articles of Incorporation of the Company
and all amendments thereto, the Bylaws of the Company and all amendments
thereto, and such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary to the
rendering of the following opinion.

         Based upon that review, it is our opinion that the Shares, when issued
in conformance with the terms and conditions of the Plan, were or will be
legally issued, fully paid, and nonassessable under the Colorado Business
Corporation Act.

         We do not find it necessary for the purposes of this opinion to cover,
and accordingly we express no opinion as to, the application of the securities
or blue sky laws of the various states as to the issuance and sale of the
Shares.

         We consent to the use of this opinion in the registration statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the
registration of the Shares.

                                                  /s/ RICHARDSON &amp; PATEL, LLP

<PAGE>

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' CONSENT

I hereby consent to the reference to me under the caption "Experts' and to the
incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement on Form S-8 for
Americana Publishing, Inc., of my report dated March 22, 2004, on my audit of
the consolidated financial statements of Americana Publishing, Inc. included in
the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, for the year ended December 31, 2003.

         Re:   Americana Publishing, Inc. 2004 Consultant Stock Plan
               -----------------------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have acted as counsel to Americana Publishing, Inc., a Colorado
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing with
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 of the
Company's registration statement on Form S-8 relating to 3,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, par value $0.001(the "Shares"), which may be issued upon
exercise of options or otherwise granted in connection with the Americana Publishing,
Inc. 2004 Consultant Stock Plan (the "Plan").

         In connection with that registration, we have reviewed the proceedings
of the Board of Directors of the Company relating to the registration and
proposed issuance of the Shares, the Articles of Incorporation of the Company
and all amendments thereto, the Bylaws of the Company and all amendments
thereto, and such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary to the
rendering of the following opinion.

         Based upon that review, it is our opinion that the Shares, when issued
in conformance with the terms and conditions of the Plan, were or will be
legally issued, fully paid, and nonassessable under the Colorado Business
Corporation Act.

         We do not find it necessary for the purposes of this opinion to cover,
and accordingly we express no opinion as to, the application of the securities
or blue sky laws of the various states as to the issuance and sale of the
Shares.

         We consent to the use of this opinion in the registration statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the
registration of the Shares.

                                                  /s/ RICHARDSON & PATEL, LLP
Exhibit 23.1

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' CONSENT

I hereby consent to the reference to me under the caption "Experts' and to the
incorporation by reference in the Registration Statement on Form S-8 for
Americana Publishing, Inc., of my report dated March 22, 2004, on my audit of
the consolidated financial statements of Americana Publishing, Inc. included in
the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, for the year ended December 31, 2003.
