"It is still, and probably will long remain, the most authentic and scholarly collection of Indian mythical tales." --Frances Lee Utley

A classic collection of Indian myths and legends; mythological, hero and trickster tales; tales of magic and enchantment; many more.

Back Jacket

This is a book of interest not only to the student of folklore, but to the general reader as well, because the tales are both interesting in themselves and indigenous to our 'native Americans.'
