Extraordinary photography! Witty narration!,
By Vashti Summervill (vashti_s@hotmail.com) (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Shared Spirits: Wildlife and Native Americans (Religion and Spirituality) (Paperback)
All creation is connected. This is the underlying theme of "Shared Spirits" as it beautifully depicts Native American thoughts on twelve different species through extraordinary photographs and witty narration. "Considering the struggles we are now having with our own environment, perhaps it is time to listen to some old teachers - the ones who have been here for eons. Native People aren't the original teachers. They simply listened to the rest of the Earth with an open heart, giving voice to bear, eagle, raven and stone, and carried the water through the desert, to us (from the Introduction of Shared Spirits)." Perhaps through works such as this, all creation can learn to live harmoniously together and man can begin to realize that we have been entrusted to be caretakers of this beautiful planet and all of the creation it houses.

Brilliant!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shared Spirits: Wildlife and Native Americans (Religion and Spirituality) (Paperback)
This book is enlightening. It retells old tales with beautiful photos. Animals and nature have center stage in the attempts to teach us, to show us, what is important in life. I volunteer at a Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Illinois and can speak personally of witnessing the intelligence, the playfulness, the connectedness that exists in all creatures. We should cherish the earth, the animals, the plants, they can survive without us, but we wouldn't make it without them.
