Jero…ld Ramsey gathers together scattered and often inaccessible legends originally transcribed and translated by scholars such as Archie Phinney, Melville Jacobs, and Franz Boas. Folklore of the Northwest tribes has long been the exclusive province of collectors, anthropologists, linguistic journals and monographs. Ramsey selects myths and tales of the Tillamook, Coos, Nez Perce, Klamath, Paiute, et al., offering them to everyone as literature. A valuable collection for folklorists. Loaded with literary and historical treasure, making it one of those few works which can provide us with an option against continued ignorance. The American West will come of age as a place for indigenous literature as we count these tales among all the classics of humankind's expression. Includes Notes section by chapter and comprehensive bibliography. 295 pages. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall.
