Notes


An anthology of writings relating to the Windigo, compiled by Canadian anthologist John Robert Colombo. The volume gathers a range of accounts and stories concerning the Windigo, a spirit figure in the traditions of Algonkian-speaking peoples of Canada. While the subject is drawn from Indigenous belief, most selections are taken from early fur-trade narratives and works of fiction by later writers, with only a small number of contributions originating from First Nations sources.
