The bow’s resilience and flexibility, the arrow’s grace and power, the archer’s focus and patience—in these, we find the essential qualities for living a life of strength, purpose,and simplicity. In The Lakota Way of Strength and Courage , Joseph M. Marshall builds upon the central metaphor of the bow and arrow to provide a treasury of insights, stories, and irreplaceable wisdom. With eloquent prose and an elder’s perspective, Marshall draws from traditional stories, the history of the Lakota, and his own experiences to offer timeless lessons on: · Transformation—what the journey of the Lakota people teaches us about preserving what is essential as our external circumstances change · Simplicity—the story of Grandmother Grass Braid, who understood that “the more you know, the less you need to carry” · Purpose—how the world unveils our purpose to us, as revealed in the story of the Keeper of the Winter Count · Strength—the moving story of Henry One Bull, and how adversity teaches us to develop the true core of our strength Review: An interesting reflection on Native American wisdom and history - The author, of Native American heritage, writes well and provides powerfully worded, helpful insights to the plight and character of his ancestral way of life. He presents a sobering summary of aspects of Lakota history without sounding bitter, though he and his people and their culture certainly have a right to the strongest of emotions about how they have been historically treated by European invaders. The anecdotes and parables along the way framed by historical reference that gives place and time to the narrative, are worthy of your time if contemplating life, feeling compassion and learning to respect another culture's path through existence is of interest to you.
