Coyote is easily the most popular character in the stories of
Indian tribes from Canada to Mexico. This volume contains seventeen
coyote tales collected and translated by Father Berard Haile,
O.F.M., more than half a century ago. The original Navajo
transcriptions are included, along with notes. The tales show
Coyote as a warrior, a shaman, a trickster; a lecher, a thief; a
sacrificial victim, and always as the indomitable force of life. He
is the paradoxical hero and scamp whose adventures inspire laughter
or awe, depending upon what shape he takes in a given story.
In his introduction to "Navajo Coyote Tales," Karl W. Luckert
considers Coyote mythology in a theoretical and historical
framework.
