The Legend of Multnomah Falls is a book written by Susan Williamson Smith and published in 1905. The book is a retelling of the Native American legend that explains the origin of Multnomah Falls, a natural wonder located in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon.According to the legend, a beautiful young woman named Loowit was courted by two powerful gods, Wy’east and Pahto. However, Loowit could not decide which god to choose and instead chose to remain neutral. This angered the gods, and they began to fight over her. The battle was so intense that it caused the earth to shake and the mountains to crumble. In the end, the gods were turned into mountains, with Wy’east becoming Mount Hood, Pahto becoming Mount Adams, and Loowit becoming Mount St. Helens.The legend also explains the creation of Multnomah Falls, which was said to be the tears of Loowit falling from Mount St. Helens. The book describes the beauty of the falls and the surrounding landscape, as well as the history of the area and its Native American inhabitants.Overall, The Legend of Multnomah Falls is a fascinating retelling of a Native American legend that adds to the rich cultural history of the Pacific Northwest.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
