Dorris Alexander “Dee” Brown, the author of “Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee”, provides a comprehensive collection of Native American folklore that illuminates the roots of Native American culture. Gathered from numerous tribes—Seneca, Hopi, Navaho, Creek, Cheyenne, Cherokee, and Blackfoot—these thirty-six stories, passed down through generations, have been rewritten by Dee Brown as they might be told around a campfire today. Updated for the modern reader, these tales capture the true spirit and flavor of Native American Mythology.
