This book is a brilliant collection of stories from the folklore tradition of the Algonquin peoples of North America, in particular of the "Micmac, Passamaquoddy and Penobscot tribes". The collection presented in the book is a result of the collecting efforts of folklorist Charles G. Leland and from Rev. Silas T. Rand, a Canadian Baptist clergyman who was the first to record the legend of Glooskap.
Reprint of the original edition from 1884.
