The Indian Legend of Watchung is a book written by Francis E. Bodin that tells the story of the Watchung Mountains in New Jersey through the lens of Native American folklore. The book is a collection of legends and stories passed down through generations of the Lenape tribe, who once inhabited the region. These tales explain the natural features of the mountains, such as the creation of the Great Falls and the origins of the Watchung tribe. Bodin's book also explores the history of European settlement in the area and the impact it had on the Lenape people. He discusses the forced relocation of the tribe to reservations and the loss of their culture and way of life. The Indian Legend of Watchung serves as both a tribute to the Native American heritage of the region and a warning against the destructive effects of colonization.Overall, The Indian Legend of Watchung is a fascinating exploration of the intersection of history, folklore, and culture. It provides a unique perspective on the natural beauty of the Watchung Mountains and the people who once called them home.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
