Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Legend of Wonalansett: A Tale of the White Hills The events recorded in this legend belong far back in the dim past. I heard the story as it fell from the lips of a wrinkled old squaw in the White Hills, who sold beaded and braided baskets, and who claimed to be a direct descendant of the Penacook Indians. She told it as it had been handed down in the tribe for more than five hundred years. No history has chronicled the acts set forth in the story of the old squaw; only in the traditions of the red men do they find a place. In that shadowy age of which the legend treats the land was supremely fertile. It bore wonderful harvests of golden maize and rich fruits, and the waters were full of fish, while in the forests the deer were as plentiful as sparrows. The seasons were not as severe, and the blasts of winter bit less keenly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
