Review by Indian Maid, 2010-02-11
The book is couched entirely in how we supposedly 'were'. As if we do not still connect with our Holy Mother the Earth as we always have - & always will do. As if the Traditional Ways are no longer practiced & there are no more authentic Traditional people. What a crock of crap! We still do these things. There are still authentic Traditional people. And there isn't nearly enough material in it, either. Kent Nerburn, this is not your best work. This Sun Dancer with a most public prayer will be charitable & give it a "c".

This book made me wish I had paid more attention to the teaching of both my grand-mother and mother. The wisdom of the Native Americans are far beyond what we can many times put into words. This book help to bring back many of the conversations that my grand-mother and mother had with me when I was growning up. I so wished I had paid more attention to their first hand teachings.

Review by Frozen Reader, 2009-05-01
This book is a good collaboration of various speeches and teachings of many famous Native Americans. It provides an excellent insight to the ethics and morals of an entire nation of people. Tho not quite what I was looking for when I purcheased the book, still a good buy.
Review by Julie T., 2009-04-10
This book has lots of little excerpts from Native Americans. It's the kids of book you can pick up and read little pieces here and there, not to sit down and read it all at once. It's a treasure that keeps on giving.
