- Summary
-
The Indian peopled the world with wonder-folk --gods and monsters, ghosts and spirits. His myths give us a glimpse into his thought. They are his oral literature, the wisdom of the elder-men, handed down by mouth. The myths are taken from the lore of several tribes. A brief explanatory note accompanies every story. Each note explains some custom or belief of Indian life or some fact of woodcraft mentioned in the story.
