Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Native American Folklore and Traditions

This book brings together several favourite tales from Native American tribes across the United States. From heartwarming coming of age tales to warning tales of supernatural power, the stories told in this volume bring to life the culture of America's first peoples. Recounted from oral traditions by a variety of anthropologists, the customs and ways of life of the diverse peoples blur the boundaries between myths and reality and remind us of a time when nature held exceptional power and those who forsook it were regarded as fools.
