The Inland Whale: Nine Stories Retold from California Indian Legends Paperback - 2005 - 2nd Edition
by Theodora Kroeber; Foreword by Karl Kroeber
From the rear cover
PRAISE FOR THE FIRST EDITION:
"Thanks to Mrs. Kroeber's simple, supple style, the stories all succeed as stories; they please, engage, move, or divert without depending for their effect on their exotic source."--The New Yorker
"The varying but almost always superb story style of these narratives will speak to all."--New York Herald Tribune
"This is a jewel of a book."--San Francisco Chronicle
"These stories enlarge life. They remind us of Shakespeare and Aeschylus.... That Mrs. Kroeber's book should generate such thoughts is proof of its power and beauty."--New York Times Book Review
