Reviews
"This impressively thorough reader is organized seasonally, showing the connection of myth to the land and its changes. Eloquent introductions provide context for the historical accounts, and poems from contemporary Great Lakes Native writers connect past and present. An excellent resource for all Great Lakes--area libraries and for others with active American Indian collections." -- Booklist Online, "Anyone with an interest in Native American cultures will find this book a delight. Stories, songs, poetry, speeches, autobiographies, fiction, and art of the Great Lakes Native nations are sprinkled with photos and illustrations that stretch out over more than 500 pages." -- MENSA Bulletin, "While the selections of the book are based on the products of Great Lakes American Indians, those who enjoy Native history and culture will find this book a real gem." — Native News Network, "Brehm, a retired professor of American literature, collected native stories, songs, poetry, speeches, fiction, autobiography and art from the Great Lakes."  — Buffalo News (New York), "A comprehensive collection of traditional and contemporary Great Lakes Native literatures—stories, songs, poetry, speeches, autobiography, and fiction, enriched by music, visual arts, and a historic timeline."  — OHS  Bulletin (Ontario Historical Society), "Offering insight into the arts of Great Lakes Native nations, this collection of stories, songs, poetry, speeches, autobiographies, and fiction, spans the centuries from deep past to the present."  — Mighty Ape (New Zealand), "Star Songs and Water: A Great Lakes Native Reader" should be savored one writing at a time. Readers should allow the writings to simmer as they enjoy the deep rich history of Great Lakes American Indians. -- The Grand Rapids Press (Michigan), "While the selections of the book are based on the products of Great Lakes American Indians, those who enjoy Native history and culture will find this book a real gem." -- Native News Network, "Anyone with an interest in Native American cultures will find this book a delight. Stories, songs, poetry, speeches, autobiographies, fiction, and art of the Great Lakes Native nations are sprinkled with photos and illustrations that stretch out over more than 500 pages." — MENSA Bulletin, Lake Superior Magazine "Readers of this book will come away more enlightened and more connected to the region and each other." -- Konnie LeMay (click here to read the full review) Booklist Online "Among the Indian nations of America, those of the Great Lakes are often overlooked in popular culture and, indeed, even in scholarly publishing. Much more literature is available about the pueblo nations of the Southwest, the eagle-feathered Plains Indians, and the whale-hunting Arctic peoples than about the dozens of groups who lived in the Midwest, making their living by fishing, hunting, and cultivating "the three sisters"--corn, beans, and squash. "Yet those groups, including the Ojibwe, Menominee, Ho-Chunk, Miami, Seneca, Huron, and others, have complex cultures rich in significant myths and legends. This impressively thorough reader is organized seasonally, showing the connection of myth to the land and its changes. Eloquent introductions provide context for the historical accounts, and poems from contemporary Great Lakes Native writers connect past and present. An excellent resource for all Great Lakes-area libraries and for others with active American Indian collections." -- Patricia Monaghan MENSA Bulletin "Anyone with an interest in Native American cultures will find this book a delight." Grand Rapids Press "The book provides a bridge from historic American Indians . . . to contemporary writers. [It] should be savored, one writing at a time." Ontario Historical Society "A comprehensive collection of traditional and contemporary Great Lakes Native literatures--stories, songs, poetry, speeches, autobiography, and fiction--enriched by music, visual arts, and a historic timeline." Midwest Book Review Bookwatch "A precious resource to encourage further exploration. Truly a beautiful patchwork sampler of many cultures and entities' distilled knowledge and traditions in the form of their stories and literature. Perhaps it might be thought of as a Great Lakes Native American Norton Anthology, if that is not a demeaning comparison.", "This impressively thorough reader is organized seasonally, showing the connection of myth to the land and its changes. Eloquent introductions provide context for the historical accounts, and poems from contemporary Great Lakes Native writers connect past and present. An excellent resource for all Great Lakes–area libraries and for others with active American Indian collections." — Booklist Online
