Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Legends of the Pike's Peak Region: The Sacred Myths of the Manitou
That the songs of a people are stronger than their laws; and the myths and traditions em bodying the sentiments upon which national character, national religion, are founded, are more powerful than the songs, which they inspire. A ballad of the people, a bit of folk lore, may teach us more than whole chapters of history; we can hardly understand history without such lights.
