Alsea Texts and Myths is a book authored by Leo J. Frachtenberg, which provides a comprehensive collection of texts and myths from the Alsea tribe. The Alsea tribe is a Native American tribe that used to inhabit the Oregon coast. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about the Alsea tribe's culture, traditions, and beliefs. The book is divided into two parts. The first part includes a detailed introduction to the Alsea tribe's history, language, and culture. It provides a brief overview of the tribe's social structure, economy, and religious beliefs. The second part of the book contains a collection of traditional Alsea texts and myths. These texts and myths cover a wide range of topics, including creation stories, animal tales, and legends about important figures in Alsea culture. The book is written in a scholarly style, with detailed footnotes and references to other works on Native American culture. It is an essential resource for researchers, scholars, and students interested in Native American studies. The book's detailed introduction and comprehensive collection of texts and myths make it an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning about the Alsea tribe and their culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
