Ella Clark Books
Ella Elizabeth Clark's work delved into the rich and varied legends of North American Indians. Her research immersed itself in the study of myths and stories endangered by the encroaching modern world, striving to preserve them for future generations. This scholarly interest in mythology extended to a broader concern for the well-being and future of American Indians, evident in both her published works and personal correspondence. Clark's explorations also encompassed the flora of the Cascade Mountains and efforts to protect this natural heritage.
