About this book
Twenty-six tales drawn from Native American storytelling fill this collection, which Cornelius Mathews brought out in 1869 with illustrations by John McLenan. The stories were first interpreted by Henry R. Schoolcraft and are here retold and enlarged by Mathews, who hoped they would sit beside Cinderella and the Arabian Nights. The opening tale follows Waupee, the White Hawk, a hunter who comes upon a ring worn into the prairie grass. Other titles include Osseo, the Son of the Evening Star, The Red Swan, Manabozho, the Mischief-Maker, and Wunzh, the Father of Indian Corn.
