Abstract
|
:
|
"The myths and legends in this collection have been selected both for their excellence as stories and because they illustrate the distinctive nature of Native American storytelling. They are drawn from oral traditions of the major culture areas of aboriginial North America and include trickster tales, origin myths, and stories of domestic sexual conflict."--Jacket
