Synopsis
This new selection of myths offers a broad insight into the nature and lifestyle of the ancestral lands of the Native American tribes that once stretched from the tip of Alaska, down to the Bay of Mexico. Hundreds of languages, with traditions and folkore, grew independently across the continent, flourishing in deserts, mountains and lush valleys of a vast land. The loss of such ancient traditions is a reminder of the damage humans can wreak through ignorance, desperation and greed, as settlers from Europe swept imperiously across the newly discovered, but long-populated lands of the so-called New World. From 'The Great Deeds of Michabo' to 'The Legend of Hiawatha', from trickster creator-deities, heroes and supernatural beings to epic voyages and an affinity with animals, there is so much to discover in this comprehensive new book. It's the latest addition to Flame Tree's Epic Tales series of deluxe anthologies and brings together a thoughtful selection of myths and tales from across the ancient plains of North America., The mythology and folk tales of the native American tribes are many and varied, ranging from those of the Iroquois in the Northeast, and the Blackfoot and Cheyenne of the Great Plains, to the Cherokee of the Southeast, and the Navajo and Apache of the Southwest, among countless more. Though they all retain distinctive identities, they share a deep-seated reverence for Nature, the all-encompassing importance of which reverberates through the tales, which abound with the symbolism of flora and fauna, the elements and the heavenly bodies. Trickster creator-deities, heroes, supernatural beings, epic voyages and an affinity with animals are also common elements. From 'The Great Deeds of Michabo' to 'The Legend of Hiawatha', this desirable addition to Flame Tree's Epic Tales series of deluxe anthologies brings together a thoughtful selection of myths and tales from all over North America., The varied myths and folktales of the countless North American native tribes, from the Iroquois to the Cherokee, share a reverence for Nature, trickster creator-deities, heroes, monsters, epic voyages and an affinity with animals. From 'The First Fire' to 'The Legend of Hiawatha', this collection brings together tales from all over the region.

I was expecting it to be, but that's completely my fault. The product is exactly as described, in good condition and of good quality. Shipping was fast. Appearance good, no pages ripped and cover is not bent. It was sent in a bag instead of a box, though, which could have led to damage in shipping.
