Review: A beautiful book about a beautiful people. - I am so pleased with this book. I love the Lakota and was led to Joseph Marshall by a wonderful chain of events. I have travelled to South Dakota and been to Rosebud, so this collection of stories have enormous meaning for me. The stories within the book are based on the oral tradition that the Lakota used to offer wisdom and guidance to their tribal people through the ages. The stories are interspersed with modern day tales written in a wonderfully sensitive manner. If you are fascinated by the Native American Culture especially the Lakota, I highly recommend this lovely book. I will be dipping into it over and over again to receive wise counsel when I am looking for the answers to life's challenges. Many thanks Joseph for this wonderful book. The Native American original people have been treated disrespectfully for generations but they remain a noble and indomitable spiritual people who have so much to teach the rest of the world. Mitakuye Oyasin. If you are interested in raising awareness for the Lakota please contact [...] donate and do something worthwhile for this too often forgotten people.
Review: Good book. I enjoyed the stories with their messages - Good book. I enjoyed the stories with their messages, and I enjoy learning about Native American culture and lifestyle. Not for that, I can't remember what they call it - thunder dance or thunder, something, when, whoever he was wanted the wolf dog for a ritual in which he was going to boil him alive... I think that was the only bit I didn't like. So glad the young woman didn't give the dog to him.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A privilege to own this book
*by C***M on 24 May 2023*

This book was published in 2001, which makes it 22 years old today. I feel it's a privilege to own it, as it's so full of information and in great condition. The philosophy and creative fiction stories are absolutely wonderful!
