Toronto: McClelland & Stewart, 1978. 178 pp, 7 3/4" H. B&w illustrations. Inscribed on half-title page: "Best wishes to Bruce - / Kay Hill / Apr 29/82". "Continuing the humour, excitement and charm which began with the stories in 'Glooscap and His Magic', this volume of Kay Hill's reworkings of Wabanaki Indian legends has achieved immense popularity among youngsters. Here again is the Great Chief Glooscap, who, with his huge size and magic powers, does roaring battle with giants and wizards and instructs his wayward Indians and animals how to live wisely and well. The incorrigible Badger is back, as are the mischievous rabbit, Ableegumooh, Keoonik the otter, Glooscap's servants Noogumee and Marten, and the Indian devil, Lox. Readers will also meet the evil Chenoos, visit the land of the Red Giants, find out how Summer was stolen, and discover how the enemy was outwitted in the great Penobscot raid." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - edge wear, rubbing and scuff marks on the front cover and the spine, small blank label on the rear cover.. Inscribed by author.. Reprint.. Soft Cover. Very Good-. Illus. by John Hamberger..
