The Indians of the North West Coast, like many other Indian tribes, were great storytellers. During the long winter nights they held great feasts called Potlatches, at which fine gifts were given, great occasions were celebrated, and the best stories were told. The three stories in this book are: The Prince who was taken away by the Salmon, which explores the mystery of the Pacific Salmon - their disappearance and return to the rivers of the west; Raven Traveling, Tsimshian version is an incurable glutton, and Ghost Story, which shows the Indian acceptance of the spirit world, of life after death, and of the normal rhythm of life and death. A Wonderfully written Novel!
