The Inland Whale is a 1959 book by Theodora Kroeber. It is a retelling of nine pieces of Indigenous American folklore, along with authorial commentary.[1][2] Kroeber's prose received praise, though a reviewer noted that she had taken some liberties with the narratives. The book was described as a work of comparative literature, that sought to demonstrate the literary merit of indigenous oral traditions.[2][1]
