A beautiful and important history

This is the third book by the author that I have read in the last two months. Each was equally well written and packed full of important information for all of humanity and are planet. I highly recommend this book, as well as Marshall's other works.

Enjoyable glimpse into an important perspective

Told in the sincere voice of Mr. Marshall this listen was very pleasant. Despite an understandably uncritical treatment of “native peoples” there is plenty of humble wisdom shared. Failing to list violence or genocide among possible explanations of the apparent disappearance, migration or “failure” of some ancient indigenous cultures of North America does his overall story a disservice.

Wisdom from the past for 21st century living

This was a thoroughly enjoyable book to listen to. The wisdom shared is timeless and invaluable. I believe there is a great deal of truth here. If I correctly understand what Joseph Marshall has said, then my only disagreement is the way he has interpreted Christian teachings. I believe that Christianity is sometimes misinterpreted to permit abuse and misuse of the earth. I believe that the Bible instead teaches that we are just as much a part of natural creation as everything else and were commanded by God to care for it. Rather than being at odds with his Native American philosophy and worldview, I believe that these beliefs are shared by the Biblical authors and provides a common ground for understanding and for living. The Bible tells us that the first human was made from the earth and will return to the earth.

Valuable Wisdom

Another incredible piece of work by the well expressed and articulate Joseph Marshall. Hearing his knowledge and wisdom shard by his own voice is powerful and inspiring. The stories he tells and the information contained within touch a deep place in my heart. I am infinitely grateful for this book and the many others written by Marshall, inviting and encouraging us all to remember, to reconnect, and to respect.

Another great read by Joseph Marshall III

Inspired by a recent trip to South Dakota, I became obsessed with learning more about the Lakota people and their ways. This book sheds light on a different time, and a different approach to life on this earth. We could all take a leaf from that mindset, as our lifestyle grows faster and faster with each passing day.
