CALIFORNIA INDIANS

How Coyote Stole Fire: A California Karok tale, typed as retold in Virginia Haviland's North American Indian Legends, 1916. This is a rather stilted, quaint version of a tale often retold by authors of children's lit. See Book review of Fire Race: A Karuk Coyote Tale

• How Squire Coyote Brought Fire to the Cahrocs: John Vance Cheyney -- an older version of the Karuk story as a poem, closer to the way it was probably told -- as a song. Century Magazine, 1885.
