In this collection of almost sixty tales, Indians
themselves-Cherokees, Chickasaws, Choctaws, Creeks, Seminoles, and
others-tell us about their beliefs, their traditions, and their
history, in myths and legends that cover the classic themes of
world mythology. Most of the stories were recorded in the late
nineteenth century, at a time when Indian myth-keepers who
remembered the tribal tales were still alive. Notes and
introductory comments throughout the book provide background
information for the stories. Editors Virginia Pounds Brown and
Laurella Owens bring these stories together for the first time in
one volume. This collection makes enjoyable and significant reading
for adults as well as young people.
