Book Overview

by Angelo Baca (Foreword by), J. K. Jackson (Editor)

With a new introduction, this collection of shared stories gives insights into pre-columbian North America and its peoples.

Algonquin, Iroquois, Ojibwe, Cherokee - the myriad peoples of North America and their folktales are deeply fascinating because they are unique amongst the mythologies of the world. The tribes were isolated from outside influence for thousands of years and developed a fruitful, empathetic relationship with their landscape, evolving a tradition that respected and feared nature in equal measure. The tales collected for this book celebrate the diverse and sacred tribal visions of a rich and powerful land that still resonate today.

Flame Tree Collector's Editions present the foundations of speculative fiction: authors, myths, tales and history without which the imaginative literature of the twentieth century would not exist, bringing the best, most influential and most fascinating works into a striking and collectable library. Each book features a new Introduction and a Glossary of Terms or lists of Ancient Leaders.
