Wisconsin Chippewa Myths and Tales, originally published in 1977, was the first collection of Chippewa folklore to provide a comparative and sociological context for the tales. These myths and tales were recorded between 1941 and 1944 by four young field workers who later became prominent anthropologists: Joseph B. Casagrande, Ernestine Friedl, Robert E. Ritzenthaler and Victor Barnouw himself. The tales - which include stories of tricksters, animals, magical powers, and cannibal ice-giants - were told primarily by five members of the Lac Court Orcilles and Lac du Flambeau bands of Chippewa: John Monk, Prosper Guibord, Delia Oshogay, Tom Badger and Julia Badger.
