Description
We are just beginning to realize the charm and importance of Indian legends. “Too late, perhaps,” wrote W.S. Piper when he first published this book in 1924, as many of the old-time Ojibways, who translated freely, had passed away. By pen and camera, the author tried to preserve some of the stories told to him years ago by his Indian friends, Chief Skeet, Luke Bushy, Chief Penassie, Chief Blackstone, and Joe Turtle, among others. There is an unmistakable fascination with Indian legends, which is greatly increased when they are heard amidst the surroundings that gave them birth.
