About the Author

Review
"More than 30 tales, each presenting an aspect of Zuni belief, is in this collection. Frank Cushing visited the Territory with a Smithsonian expedition and stayed five years absorbing the culture and the mythology of the people. He translates the dignity of the Indian lore to the dignity of disciplined English and our language and their mythology is enhanced."—Press-Journal (Florida)"The fortuitous juxtaposition of Cushing's investigative genius and the Indian soul causes this work to be regarded as state-of-the-art anthropology."—Books of the Southwest
