This work, then, contains a collection of the myths, legends, and folk-lore of the principal Wabanaki, or Northeastern Algonquin, Indians; that is to say, of the Passamaquoddies and Penobscots of Maine, and of the Micmacs of New Brunswick. All of this material was gathered directly from Indian narrators, the greater part by myself, the rest by a few friends; in fact, I can give the name of the aboriginal authority for every tale except one.

Critiques

interesting theory


(4 stars)

Charles Leland proposes an interesting theory that North East native American mythology is distended through the Eskimos from Nordic mythology. This tales retold in this volume or fantastical interesting and very educational regarding magic. Waylon specialty is the occult and magic in mythology and I really enjoyed his examination of magical beliefs of the Native American. Having a variety of readers made the book more interesting even though sometimes the stories are repetitive. Thank you to all the volunteers for their time and their voices.
