Excerpt from Indian Old-Man Stories: More Sparks From War Eagle's Lodge-Fire
It is a mistake to declare that the sun is the god of the Indian, or that Old-man and the sun are one and the same character. Nothing can be farther from the truth. The god is Manitou, and He is All Everything Nature; while the sun is reverenced by all tribes that I know only as the greatest manifestation of the deity, whose; name is seldom mentioned.

From the Back Cover:
These stories - collected from Blackfeet, Chippewa, and Cree elders and first published in 1920 - are full of wonder at the way things are. Why children lose their teeth, why eyesight fails with age, why dogs howl at night, why some animals wear camouflage - these and other mysteries, large and small, are made vividly sensible.
About the Author:
Frank Bird Linderman was, at one time or another, a trapper, an assayer, a businessman, a newspaper editor, a legislator, and an insurance agent, as well as the author of seven books about Indians, a juvenile having to do with a chipmunk, a volume of verse, and articles in magazines.
