The best of the American Indian myths are works of art, blending form and content into an organic whole that interweaves the great themes of human experience. John Bierhorst's brilliant selection of sixty-four tales - each significant and interesting in itself - presents a comprehensive view of a world that will be both familiar and vastly different for 'Western' readers.The Red Swan is valuable both for its scope and for the superb quality of the stories themselves.
