About this book
Told in English by a Tuscarora author who admits he had little schooling, this is an account of the traditions of the Six Nations in three parts. The first is a tale of creation, in which a woman falls from the upper world and a turtle takes the earth on its back. The second describes early settlers of North America and their quarrels. The third gives the founding of the Five Nations' Long House, with its wars and fierce creatures.
Cusick signed his preface at Tuscarora Village in June 1825; this is the Lockport printing of 1848.
