Myths of the Modocs is a book written by Jeremiah Curtin, which explores the myths, legends, and folklore of the Modoc people, a Native American tribe who inhabited the California-Oregon border region. The book is a collection of stories that were passed down orally from generation to generation, and were recorded by Curtin during his travels in the late 1800s. The book includes tales of creation, the origin of the Modoc people, and their interactions with other tribes and with white settlers. The stories are rich in detail and offer a glimpse into the Modoc culture, beliefs, and values. Curtin's writing style is straightforward and respectful of the Modoc people and their traditions. He provides context and commentary to help readers better understand the stories and their significance. Overall, Myths of the Modocs is a fascinating and informative book that sheds light on a lesser-known Native American tribe and their mythology. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American culture, folklore, and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
