Sold by Mighty Ape
Collected on the Queen Charlotte Islands off the coast of British Columbia, this volume preserves the poetic voice of the Haida people through their traditional songs. Recorded by ethnologist John Reed Swanton in the early twentieth century, the collection captures the cultural depth of a society rich in ceremony, mythology, and social structure.
Each song reveals aspects of Haida life-from class hierarchy and spiritual beliefs to the roles and reverence accorded to women-offering a rare linguistic and anthropological record. Presented with full interlinear Haida text, these verses stand as both artistic expression and historical document.
Haida Songs provides an enduring testament to the spiritual and cultural vitality of one of the Pacific Northwest’s most distinctive Indigenous communities.
