MP3 Audio CD. Many of the stories included in this collection are still told and believed among native Americans living on the territory of Canada today. While the folktales included here are recorded and edited quite thoroughly by Cyrus Macmillan to fit in with the views and understanding of his time, they remain a highly valuable part of the heritage left behind by Canadian natives from long ago.The poetry and mystical qualities of Canada?s past, particularly during and before the period of colonization, are rapidly disappearing today, as they have been since the time when Cyrus Macmillan decided to preserve these tales. Knowing they would eventually be lost to the descendants of the early Canadian settlers, he worked hard to preserve them in a form that would easily be understood by both modern Canadians of all races and cultures.Canada?s romantic past is remembered through old customs and traditions despite the country?s rapid modernization, and its memory was fresh during the time that these… Read More

MP3 Audio CD. Canadian Wonder Tales THE BAKER'S MAGIC WAND Once very long ago in the days when Canada was owned by the French there lived on the banks of a great river a wicked lawyer who was in love with a baker's wife. He tried in various ways to get rid of the baker, but without success. They lived not far from the Seigneur who owned all the land around and was very powerful. Now, in front of the Seigneur's palace there was a great lake of more than twelve thousand acres. One morning the lawyer went to the palace and knocked at the door. When the Seigneur came out, he said to him, "Sire, there is a man not far from here who boasts that in less than twice twenty-four hours he can change this lake into a beautiful meadow covered with grass that would give hay enough for all your horses and would be to the great advantage of the colony." Then the Seigneur said, "Who is this man?" The lawyer answered, "He is no less than the baker who furnishes your household with… Read More

MP3 Audio CD. Canadian Fairy Tales HOW GLOOSKAP MADE THE BIRDS Once upon a time long before the white men came to Canada there lived a wicked giant who caused great trouble and sorrow wherever he went. Men called him Wolf-Wind. Where he was born no man knows, but his home was in the Cave of the Winds, far in the north country in the Night-Night Land, and there men knew he was hiding on calm days when the sun was hot and the sea was still, and on quiet nights when not a leaf or a flower or a blade of grass was stirring. But whenever he appeared, the great trees cracked in fear and the little trees trembled and the flowers bent their heads close to the earth, trying to hide from his presence. Often he came upon them without warning and with little sign of his coming. And then the corn fell flat never to rise again, and tall trees crashed in the forest, and the flowers dropped dead because of their terror; and often the great waters grew white and moaned or screamed loudly or dashed themselves against… Read More
