Description

Bigfoot in Native Culture: A Collection of Stories from 55 Cultures. For thousands of years, native people inhabited North America's vast regions, developing unique cultures and stories that have been passed down through generations. One of these creatures, now known as Bigfoot, has become a part of modern culture - but its origins lie in the rich mythology of indigenous peoples. Kathy Moskowitz Strain presents a collection of verbatim stories from 55 native cultures that tell of giants, cannibals, and monsters. This book takes us to the campfires where such stories have been repeated for thousands of years by native elders and warriors. It provides a unique insight into a part of their mythology, values, and spirituality, making it invaluable for those interested in this fascinating branch of human knowledge. With hundreds of photographs of native people in their various walks of life, this work offers a glimpse into the inner circles of our aboriginal people. With its unique blend of storytelling and cultural insight, this book is an adventure into the heart of North America's indigenous cultures.
