Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lo-to-Kah The six tales that make up this little book were composed hastily, and at long intervals, and all of them were written in the scant leisure that falls to the lot of a busy man of business. This may, in part, account for their imperfections. The supernatural is taken into account, to a great extent, because it is taken into account in the lives of the Indians. I hope to have the leisure and good fortune, at a later time, to study and treat fully of the religion of the Ute Indians, but for the purpose of explaining the mystical references in these stories, it will suffice to say that some of the Utes believe in the re-incarnation of the soul, in the power to send the spirit (they do not know the term "Astral body") away from the physical body, and in the possibility of holding communion with the spirits of the dead. However, I have not attempted to confine myself to their literal beliefs. These stories are published in the hope that they will serve to amuse the limited number of people who may read them. If they serve no other purpose than to introduce the pictures of L. Maynard Dixon and Charles Craig in new fields, the writer believes that they will not have been published in vain.
