Celebrate the natural beauty and majestic power of the North American continent through these traditional legends of the Hopi, Navajo, Iroquois, and other Native American tribes. Stirring words and beautifully evocative images bring this land to life, from the Adirondacks to the Black Hills, Maine to Vancouver Island. Journey from coast to coast and soak up the historic and spiritual significance of the places, animals, and plants immortalized in native lore. Whether recounting Creation of the Sacred Mountains (Hopi), Origin of the Buffalo (Cheyenne), Wakiash and the First Totem Pole (Kwakiutl), or The First People and the First Corn (Penobscot, Passamaquoddy), these stories are more than literature; they are the foundations of a culture with deep mystical ties to the earth.
