4.0 out of 5 stars Coyote Myths, July 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Myths and Tales of the Jicarilla Apache Indians (Native American) (Paperback)
I bought this book because I am mainly interested in Coyote mythology. This book has a large section devoted to tales containing the Coyote in one context or another. All in all, there is approximatly 100 pages of Coyote "tails." This includes a section devoted to the "Coyote Cycle" reguarding animal myths.
