The Wisdom of the Native Americans by Kent Nerburn Pdf
The teachings of the Native Americans provide a connection with the land, the environment, and the simple beauties of life. This collection of writings from revered Native Americans offers timeless, meaningful lessons on living and learning. Taken from writings, orations, and recorded observations of life, this book selects the best of Native American wisdom and distills it to its essence in short, digestible quotes — perhaps even more timely now than when they were first written. In addition to the short passages, this edition includes the complete Soul of an Indian, as well as other writings by Ohiyesa (Charles Alexander Eastman), one of the great interpreters of American Indian thought, and three great speeches by Chiefs Joseph, Seattle, and Red Jacket.
These tales of bravery, courage and decisive action in times of terrible conflict are the stories of heroes. Although the lives of the Native chiefs and famous Métis featured in this book were often tinged with sadness and loss, they were also an inspiration. Full of adventures and battles, these tales ultimately tell of the negotiations, broken promises and harsh realities of the changing face of the West.

This is a story about Sam Hull, a United States Marshal, and the inner desires he set aside to bring Law and Order to wherever he was needed. Now, approaching the later years of his life, he wants to seek out those dreams of yesteryears that have eluded him as a Marshal. The dreams of starting a cattle ranch, marrying, and having children. Having been a part of the judiciary system for so long, he begins to periodically question if he has had enough of death, deceit, and the quagmire of sadness that goes along with being a United States Marshal. All the things he desires become his, but not without struggles that inevitably cause him to once again want to resign. However, with the right woman at his side and a renewed vigor, he finds what sustained all those who built the west. Courage, the courage to go on and initiate new dreams, ambitions, and to continue on as a Marshal at large, by putting aside any doubts about his ability to serve with Honor.
How can individuals live a life of forgiveness in a world so full of injustice and indifference? This haunting question spurred author Kent Nerburn to write Calm Surrender. The book looks at the life of an elderly woman mistreated by the healthcare system, a Native American desperate to keep the memories of the old ways alive, a woman singing softly over the grave of her young son. As the author recounts the experiences of people who have suffered much and asked for little, he takes readers on a moving journey.
