Be ready to immerse yourself into the myths and long forgotten stories of the Native Americans. Discover how those myths took life through many stories, and what they were at their core. Native Americans were one with nature, and that’s why their myths are so fascinating as well. This book by author Lewis Spence serves as an insight into how the First Nations saw the world and how they forged history as we know it through their beliefs and traditions, before the impact of other cultures.

While the subject matter is interesting, the verbiage used felt disrespectful, with a lot of references to indigenous people as savages, barbarians, and at one point, scoundrels. I don't know if I missed an annotation that letters or journals of settlers were being quoted, but it was definitely uncomfortable.
