Henry W. Tate (d. 1914) was a Tsimshian informant to ethnographer Franz Boas. Tate first wrote these stories in English before giving Boas the Tsimshian equivalent during the decade of 19031913. Boas published the stories in the muchconsulted classic of ethnology, Tsimshian Mythology, in 1916. Through Ralph Mauds selection of the best of Tates original stories, we can see the actual creative writer behind Boas revised texts, now preserved much closer to the way Tate originally intended.
