Wigwam Stories Told by North American Indians (Classic Reprint)

4.9/5 (32009 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Wigwam Stories Told by North American Indians These stories, told by and about the Indians, have been gathered from various sources. They show, among other interesting facts, that the love of the beautiful, and also of the humorous, dwells in the heart of the wild Indian. There are no adaptations from Longfellow's poem of Hiawatha, but the compiler has gone directly to the works of Schoolcraft, whose writings were Longfellow's inspiration. Schoolcraft's Journal states his belief that Menabozho and Hiawatha were one and the same person, the latter name being preferred as more musical. Hence, Longfellow chose it as the name of his Indian hero. Horatio Hale and other authorities on Iroquois history differ strongly from Schoolcraft on this point, and maintain that the name of Hiawatha, or Hey-anwatha, refers only to an Iroquois statesman or deity. Menabozho, or The Foolish One, is very real to the Chippewa or Ojibway Indian of Minnesota. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
