Great Cultural History of North Carolina's Cherokees,
By E deSteiguer (Arizona) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Myths of the Cherokee (Native American) (Paperback)
If you are interested in American Indian culture, you'll really enjoy this book. James Mooney researched and wrote this in the late 1800s just as the Cherokee culture was in danger of dying out. He recorded their myths,legends and language for posterity. A teenaged Cherokee in North Carolina told me they use this book today in their classes. He said it was an inspiring reference, and I agree. Fascinating; the "real thing." And Mooney's life was also very interesting. There is a separate biography of that "The Indian Man."

My Library,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Myths of the Cherokee (Forgotten Books) (Paperback)
My interest in genealogy has taken me back in time to a wife without a name(unknown). With no marriage records, no land records, no wills, just a brick wall. But I long to get to know my ancestress. This book from Amazon and several more from them about the Cherokee people have given me a window to catch a glimpse of this part of my ancestry.
