Duwayne Bowen (Seneca)
More contemporary Seneca Indian tales of the supernatural.
Bowman Books

$9.95
by Don Bowman
These 50-plus stories of Adirondack folklore document for the first time a remarkable Native American way of life, lost forever when the Sacandaga Valley was flooded in 1930 to create a reservoir for the Albany area. Don Bowman, who helped clear the valley prior to the flooding, was drawn into the lives and stories of the local Mohawk, Iroquois, and Abenaki who fill this book. His collection reminds us of their traditional customs ("She Was an Indian maid" and "No one will ever scatter my Father's Bones") and the way they interpreted natural phenomena and everyday events ("I Had a Fine Day" and "Petrified Sea Garden"). It is a poignant reminder that Native roots run deep. Don Bowman, now in his ninth decade, is retired and lives in Brown's Summit, North Carolina. His memoirs appear regularly in the Edinburg Newsletter.

Edited by Vaughn Ward
This collection of 17 tall tales, puns, and outrageous stories from the Adirondack Liars' Club - a group of nine men dedicated to preserving a tradition that began in the live - in lumber camps of the 19th century - offers a fresh view of American folklore.  "Highly entertaining in themselves, the techniques reflected in the stories include puns, illogical sequences of events, outright lies, and tall tales on the order of Paul Bunyan. Delightful." -BookList

The late Harvey Carr was an Adirondack woodsman and storyteller of prodigious gifts, whose tales of Bruno the Bear, zucchini canoes, beavers with chain saws, and Ol' Grampa are classics of the genre. Presented in his own inimitable language, and transcribed directly from his oral tellings, these 60 stories are essential reading for anyone who loves humor, tall tales, and American folklore.

Robert Johnson Perry (Chickasaw)
From ancient times through the Trail of Tears and into the 20th century, Native storytellers have passed along the tales of the Little People -- tricksters, healers, and teachers who inhabit the spirit world and bedevil and enrich the life of the living. For the first time, these stories are collected for the delight of all readers, and recounted in Robert Perry's marvelous storyteller's voice. Based on the family stories shared by Muskogea elder Chester Scott, and enhanced with Scott's own illustrations, these stories offer a unique insight into Native American culture and history and the extraordinary world of the Little People. "Robert Perry weaves history, traditional information, family stories and his own fiction to create a facinating look into the magical world of the Little People. Follow Him into this world. You will be enthralled." -- Gayle Ross, author of How the Turtle's Back was Cracked

by Bill Smith
 It's important to Bill Smith that we experience his stories as a child would.  His stories bring the past into focus.  We see those pre-nuclear daysas our last era of national innocence.  These stories will remind us that innocence can be sophisticated, comic choice in the face of the most terrible; that, like a child filling a bag with milkweed or a man spinning a good yarn, we must do what we can, from where we are with what we have. - Vaughn Ward editor
