This volume focuses on the tiger as it exists in the folktales and legends of central India's Gond tribe, whose villages were located along forests teeming with tigers--"a creature to be feared, revered, and appeased." Gond artist Uikey shares his own art and memories alongside traditional Gond tales about the tiger. Attractive, unique, and accessible; a welcome addition to folklore collections.
