Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2021

​This book is about beautiful Native American stories passed down from many generations. The author is also Native American, which makes this book even valuable.

 

For many hundreds of years, people wandered into the great northwest. They came from all directions across Canada and the United States. These early people were not only skilled farmers, they were also clever builders, engineers, and weavers. They loved games of skill. They created stories, songs and poetry. Although they spoke many different languages, and had many different customs, they had at least one thing in common - they were the first immigrants.

 

The Native Americans were grouped into tribes or nations usually based on the area they lived in and their culture such as their religion, customs, and language. Sometimes smaller tribes were part of a bigger tribe or nation. There were hundreds of tribes throughout the United States when Columbus first arrived. Many of them are well known such as the Cherokee, Apache, and the Navajo.

 

Native Americans used games, myths, dance, and impersonation to teach the children of their history and ways of life. They did not write down or record their history, so we have to find out about their history in other ways. Many oral histories were lost when European explorers and settlers came to the Americas. With them, they brought disease. The People became ill with smallpox and other illnesses.  Many died. Much was lost.

 

Through storytelling, the rich history of the Native American tribes is alive and well today.  It has been shared and preserved and still pays tribute to fallen heroes of the past. It is through these glimpses into the past, and  these stories much like the ones that are contained in this book, that you can see what a proud heritage they possess and how in tune with the Earth Native Americans really are. 

 

With these books I hope you understand the Native American people a little better and understand where they have come from and what they can offer the world.  By exploring these stories I offer you a glimpse into an often forgotten past.  The past of my people.  I was born Cherokee and as a child heard many of these stories.  These stories were passed to me in the old traditional way by my grandfather.  And now I give these stories to you, to carry forward for younger generations to explore and learn.
