Good Text Book, not Good Story Book 25 Mar 2008
By J. A. Atkins - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
If you are looking for text book that outlines native american mythology and categorizes it by region, this is the book for you. A word of caution though, it is extremely wordy and overly scholarly. It almost seems like the author had a thesaurus next him. Honestly, it took 30 pages before it I had to put it down or fall asleep. I never would have guessed that stories passed down through oral tradition could be worded so dull! The stories are outlines, with little to no background, and the author does nothing to put them into perspective. But again, if you are looking for a text book that outlines the mythologies and categorizes them by region or ethnicity, this is the book for you.
Unfortunately I bought this one thinking I was going to get the stories and how they related to the times and the people. I was obviously disappointed in that regard. If you are looking for a book that focuses on the stories and people, American Indian Myths and Legends by Pantheon Fairy Tale and Folklore Library is a little more up the alley.
