American Indian Folk Tales in m4b audiobook
format
With no written language, Native Americans living in the Lake Superior
region passed their cultural identity down through the generations by
way of stories. Far more than mere tales to amuse children, they passed
along the collective wisdom of the tribes. In the 1830s, government
Indian Agent and ethnologist Henry R Schoolcraft learned the language of
these people and went out to collect and preserve their stories before
the tribes disappeared under the westward rush of American civilization.
Though these stories were recast as children's fairy tales in the 1920s,
they contain much of the old wisdom of a culture which has largely
disappeared.
