Tyendinaga Tales is a collection of previously unrecorded Mohawk folktales gathered from residents of the Tyendinaga Indian Reserve near Bellville, Ontario. The folktales are told infrequently on the reserve and are in danger of disappearing completely. The stories are accompanied by pen and ink illustrations, the work of Jeri Maracle Van Der Vlag, a Mohawk from Tyendinaga.

Rona Rustige is curator emerita of Glanmore National Historic Site in Belleville and the Museum of Healthcare at Kingston.
