Folklore and Legends: North American Indian is a fascinating collection of Native American folklore tales that are have been passed down for so many centuries that the authorship of these tales is unknown. This great American folklore collection includes this forward: " It might have been expected that the Indians of North America would have many Folklore tales to tell, and in this volume I have endeavoured to present such of them as seemed to me to best illustrate the primitive character and beliefs of the people. The belief, and the language in which it is clothed, are often very beautiful. Fantastic imagination, magnanimity, moral sentiment, tender feeling, and humour are discovered in a degree which may astonish many."
