About this audiobook

Stretching from the north to the south of the Western Hemisphere, the indigenous Americans have a long-forgotten history, and with that, myths, legends, and stories that have been passed on through generations. Many of them were in tune with nature and had their rituals, beliefs, and mythological creatures. In this guide, you’ll hear about:  

  • Native American gods and goddesses that were worshiped by the aboriginals.
  • Some historical background, and the connection to their beliefs.  
  • The most important, best-known legends that have been told and written on cave walls.  
  • Stories that have been told on the American continent about the creation of the world.  
  • The myths and truths about supernatural powers shaman and other native Americans had (or didn’t have).  
  • Native American beliefs about birth, death, and the afterlife.  

To get a grasp of the original inhabitants of the United States, Canada, and Latin American nations, it is crucial to understand the roots of where it all came from and what was going on in people’s minds before the European settlers arrived.

    I carefully appreciated listening to this book. It contains all of the components of a publication about this theme that it ought to have. Having said this, I am normally happy about things anyway, bu In the event that I would need to outline it, it will be in 1 word: Fantastic! I do not always appreciate any kind of audiobooks, but this stuck out. And because it did, I began noticing it. It was some of the very best time I spent, especially since I was performing other tasks at the same time.

    I strongly recommend this audio book for several reasons. I guess the first number of sections were my favorite ones, since the entire idea that the title describes, gets discussed. All of the basics are here. Later in the book, more depth gets included, and I believe this is what makes it so good. It might actually have had a few errors, but they didn't take away anything from the amazing info that this audiobook contains. You can learn a ton. I know that I did.

    It's so good that my puppy gave it 5 stars as well. Both the narrator and the writer put some actual work into this. Let me think for a minute ... how should I explain this? It was professional, simple, and reasonable. With that being stated, yep, I do highly recommend this audio book. No doubt about it.

    This audiobook needs to be granted an award. That's just how good it is. This was definitely worth my time. Finally, a book which delivers. One other thing: The storyteller appeared to be so good that I would most likely listen to it in the future. Maybe even more than one time. I can't recall everything that's being stated in all these audio books, so it would be worth reminding myself of what was actually being mentioned. Learning so many new aspects of this theme was informing, to say the very least. It was a breath of fresh air. I genuinely enjoyed it.
