'Indian Story and Song from North America' is a book written by Alice C. Fletcher. It was the result of the author's immersion among the Omahas (among other tribes) and her close friendship with the Poncas and Arapahoes. Through her fieldwork, Fletcher uncovered the stories behind authentic Native American melodies and documented the lyrics in the native language (with English translations). The songs encompass a diverse range of experiences, from battle to romance.

The New York Times best-selling account of how coyotes--long the target of an extermination policy--spread to every corner of the United States Finalist for the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award "A masterly synthesis of scientific research and personal observation." -Wall Street Journal Legends don't come close to capturing the incredible story of the coyote. In the face of centuries of campaigns of annihilation employing gases, helicopters, and engineered epidemics, coyotes didn't just survive, they thrived, expanding across the continent from Alaska to New York. In the war between humans and coyotes, coyotes have won, hands-down. Coyote America is the illuminating five-million-year biography of this extraordinary animal, from its origins to its apotheosis. It is one of the great epics of our time.
