"This is one of the richest collections of mythological texts available for the whole of the American continent" - said Claude Levi-Strauss about this book. Finalist for the 2003 BC Book Prize: Roderick Haig-Brown Regional Prize, this volume represents a milestone in the history of anthropology. Franz Boas tells the myths and the legends of North America in an extraordinarily scrupulous and enjoyable way.
