In Indian Tents

by Abby Langdon Alger

This book compiles a collection of legends and stories from the Northeastern Native American tribes, specifically the Algonquin people. The author, Abby Langdon Alger, spent time with elders and storytellers of these communities, capturing their tales of witches, fairies, giants, and other mythical beings. The book aims to preserve these stories, which were in danger of being lost as the older generations passed away, and offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Algonquin people.
