Farris, Glenn J. – American Indian Quarterly, 1989
Argues that native American folk history is not just legend, but often oral history told from a different viewpoint. Compares stories from the Kashaya Pomo living near Fort Ross with Russian and English historical accounts to enlarge the picture of an 1833 Hudson's Bay expedition in California. Contains 14 references. (DHP)
