Leeming argues that, in addition to these figures, Native American mythologies have in common a deep reverence for the earth, and for community responsibility as opposed to individualism - tenets that stand in stark contrast to the concepts of exceptionalism and Manifest Destiny that characterize the United States, a nation that was built on ancient tribal land"--Book jacket
