The myths and legends of the Native American peoples have a character all their own. Born out of a deep sensitivity to nature and a child-like awe at the marvels of the world in which we live, they provide a story-board of exquisite beauty and profound spiritual and emotional truth.
The selection of myths and legends in this book introduces the reader to the Master of Life who created the world, Thunderbird who brings the storms, Grandmother Spiderwoman who descends to earth on her spider's silk, Coyote and his friends, as well as a whole cast of other characters. As part of an ancient cultural heritage, these stories remain a fitting tribute to the imaginative power and spiritual world view of the first Americans.
'Native American Myths' follows in a successful series including 'Greek Myths & Legends', 'Chronicles Of The Celts' and 'Chronicles Of Ancient Egypt'.
