A Bag of Bones, Legends of the Wintu

-- Legends of the Wintu Indians of Northern California, by Marcelle Masson. These stories come from the Wintu Indians of the northern Sacramento Valley, where they dwelled for thousands of years. As Grant Towendolly, Wintu philosopher, mystic, and shaman, retells the legends we learn that streams, rocks, trees, canyons, cliffs, ordinary scenery to us, often held special significance.
