Description
Founded on stories and myths told orally, the legends of Native American peoples have been passed down through generations, revealing the origins of a tribe, chronicling the heroes who fought the gods, showing how to reach Wakan-Taka (the Great Spirit), exploring the nature of the True Peace and reflecting on the changing landscape with the arrival of European settlers. Beautifully produced in traditional Chinese binding, Native American Legends Illustrated offers a detailed introduction to the spirit world and ghosts, creation myths and universe, people, family and culture in the words of the people who have inhabited the North American continent for thousands of years – the Iroquois, Algonquin, Cheyenne, Apache, Hopi, Dakota and Sioux – to name a few. The book also introduces characters such as Rabbit Boy, Blue Jay (the trickster bird), the Double-Faced Ghost, the Splinter-Foot Girl and Mondawmin, the Corn Spirit. Sumptuously illustrated and including numerous quotes from famous Native Americans such as Black Elk, Geronimo and Sitting Bull, Native American Legends Illustrated is a vivid, engaging read.
