{"product_id":"indian-old-man-stories-frank-bird-linderman-9780803280014","title":"Indian Old-Man Stories: More Sparks from War Eagle's Lodge-Fire (the Authorized Edition)","description":"The Indians of the northwestern plains always laughed at the tales about \u003ci\u003eOld\u003c\/i\u003e-man, heard around the lodge fire in the wintertime after sunset. For a powerful character, he was comically flawed. \u003ci\u003eOld\u003c\/i\u003e-man made the world but sometimes forgot the names of things. Victim and victimizer, he seemed closer to common experience than the awesome god Manitou. Frank B. Linderman thought \u003ci\u003eOld\u003c\/i\u003e-man was, under different names, a god for many Indian communities. These stories--collected from Chippewa and Cree elders and first published in 1920--are full of wonder at the way things are. Why children lose their teeth, why eyesight fails with age, why dogs howl at night, why some animals wear camouflage--these and other mysteries, large and small, are made vividly sensible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank B.
