These stories come from tales told by tribes living along the bays and inlets and rivers of the Pacific Northwest. Anthropologist Franz Boas lived with these native people and collected their stories, which he published in the form of notes, often short and incomplete. Levitt and Guralnick have embellished these notes, bringing them fully to life. In doing so, they acknowledge a double debt: one to Boas, without whom they would have no record of the tales, and one to the American Indians of the Pacific Northwest, whose rich and fertile minds are the source of a colorful indigenous literature.

Download and read online ebook Raven Brings the Light write by Roy Henry Vickers. This book was released on 2015-06-15. Raven Brings the Light available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In a time when darkness covered the land, a boy named Weget is born who is destined to bring the light. With the gift of a raven's skin that allows him to fly as well as transform, Weget turns into a bird and journeys from Haida Gwaii into the sky. There he finds the Chief of the Heavens who keeps the light in a box. By transforming himself into a pine needle, clever Weget tricks the Chief and escapes with the daylight back down to Earth. Vividly portrayed through the art of Roy Henry Vickers, Weget's story has been passed down for generations. The tale has been traced back at least 3,000 years by archeologists who have found images of Weget's journey in petroglyphs on the Nass and Skeena rivers. This version of the story originates from one told to the author by Chester Bolton, Chief of the Ravens, from the village of Kitkatla around 1975.
