Description
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Iroquois, anticipating their total disappearance into the North American mainstream, began to collect the stories of their people. But until Ray Fadden began his work around 1930, there had been no sustained effort to learn about Iroquois legends and traditions that would help younger generations understand the ways and customs of their ancestors. This book offers a significant selection of the stories Fadden collected from his people in the 1930s and 1940s. It is a wonderful opportunity for contemporary readers to discover a rich part of the imaginary of the Iroquoian nation.
