This classic collection contains myths, legends, and folklore of the principal Wabanaki, or northeastern Algonquin Indians, i.e. the Passamaquoddies and Penobscots of Maine and the Micmacs of New Brunswick. Most of this material was gathered directly from Indian narrators by Charles G. Leland (1824-1903), a brilliant and gifted Philadelphia-born journalist, essayist, and folklorist.
In compiling the work, Leland noted interesting affinities between the myths of the Northeastern tribes and those of the Eskimos, and striking similarities between the myths of the Algonquins and the Eddas, sagas and popular tales of Scandinavia. For example, may of the stories in this book deal with Glooskap, a divinity with strong resemblances to such Norse gods as Thor and Odin. We learn how Glooskap made man from an ash tree, named the animals, gave gifts to men, went to England and France and made America known to the Europeans, and performed many other curious deeds. Here too are the merry tales of Lox, the Mischief-maker, who bears a strong resemblance to Loki of Scandinavian mythology. Also included are the amazing adventures of Master Rabbit, the Chenoo legends, stories of At-o-sis the serpent, the story of the Three Strong Men, the Weewillmekq', tales of magic, and more.
Myths and legends provide unique and authentic sources of knowledge about our deepest instincts and ways of interpreting the world and our place in it. This volume remains one of the most powerful and revealing studies of the Algonquin versions of such myths, a thorough, comprehensive collection that will prove invaluable to any student of American Indian culture or myth, folklore, and religion. General readers will also find these tales highly readable and delightfully entertaining.

Not OEM material, doesn’t slide as easily. Feels like it will last longer.
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
Thought it was going to be the same quality as OEM, might last longer but definitely has a different texture. Fits well.

This is a 3d printed part. It fits great, looks excellent, works fantastic. I bought the grey version. Work the part in carefully, take your time. The seller’s video in the description is very helpful! Great alternative to dropping $100 on a replacement. Excellent value, fast response and shipping..

Great customer support, fits like it should, is a nice detail that you’ll notice if yours is broken. Looks like OE. This is my first 3D printed part, I hope it’ll last another 20 years. Has lasted almost a year so far!

Flimsy, pretty obviously 3D printed. It's noticeably blue in color, but no one in the front seats will notice. This is good as an aesthetic bandage fix, but I'll go back to sourcing an OEM piece.
