About this listen

 Join me as I recount the powerful Song of Hiawatha, a tale of bravery, strength, and the profound connection to nature. This epic poem tells the story of Hiawatha, the noble grandson of old Nokomis, and his journey shaped by the fierce West Wind. With its rhythmic verses, this stirring narrative weaves together the rich legends and traditions of North American Indigenous culture, flowing like a mountain stream over rocks and embracing the earth. Experience the heros trials, loves, and tribulations in a way that resonates with the heart. (Summary by Peter Yearsley) [introduction by Woodrow Morris]
