The Song of Hiawatha is an 1855 epic poem in trochaic tetrameter by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow that features Native American characters. The epic relates the adventures of an Ojibwe warrior named Hiawatha and the tragedy of his love for Minnehaha. Events in the story are set in the Pictured Rocks area on the south shore of Lake Superior. Longfellow's poem, though based on native oral traditions surrounding the figure of Manabozho, represents not a work of transmission but an original work of American Romantic literature.

In school only a portion of this "poem" was taught. It came to mind one day and I could not remember what came after "stood the wigwam of Nokomis". So I started a search for the poem and found a book. I am thrilled to be able to read the whole work and not just a few lines.
The condition of the book was excellent. Thanks again Alibris;.
