The book includes stories from various tribes such as the Navajo, Iroquois, and Sioux, and covers a range of topics from creation myths to tales of heroes and tricksters. Lang's retellings are faithful to the original stories, but he also adds his own commentary and interpretation to help readers understand the cultural significance of each myth.
