Voice of the Old Wolf by Steven Ross Evans Pdf

Lucullus V. McWhorter met and befriended Yakama and Nez Perce warriors in 1903, forming deep relationships and accumulating facts, stories, and perspectives that would otherwise have been irretrievably lost. Adopted as an honorary member of the Yakama tribe and given the name Old Wolf, he served as a stirring spokesman for non-treaty bands and captured prominent Nez Perce voices in his classic Western histories, Yellow Wolf (1940) and Hear Me, My Chiefs! (1952). Originally published in 1996, Voice of the Old Wolf is the only biography of Lucullus V. McWhorter (1860-1944). Author Steven Ross Evans focused on the Yakima area rancher’s unique roles as Nez Perce tribal historian and collector of traditional lore to help fill a significant gap in the chronology of Nez Perce history--the post 1880s to the 1940s, and assembled numerous excellent photographs, many previously unpublished. This edition includes a new foreword describing the vast McWhorter collection held by Washington State University.

Grandmother, Grandfather, and Old Wolf by Clifford E. Trafzer Pdf

A fascinating compilation of original sources recounting the history, culture, and societies of Native American groups of the Great Columbia Plateau. Edited and annotated by award-winning writer Clifford E. Trafzer, this is a magnificent collection of oral stories of the Yakama, Nez Perce, Whisram, Klickitat, as well as several other tribes. Rich in detail, the stories form the basis for Plateau Indian history, offering readers traditional native narratives that allow people to enter a sacred world of words and stories. At the beginning of time -- for all times -- these stories were told and retold for generations by all the Grandmothers and Grandfathers. These stories set animals, plants, and places in motion, and they help spin the cosmos into being. They keep the traditions alive and recreate the world with each telling. This unique collection is representative of oral traditions that are still much a part of Plateau Indian culture today. Trafzer provides a provocative introduction that ties the oral traditions of the people to their history and culture, inviting readers to use the stories as windows that will offer a better understanding of Native Americans and their relationship with the natural world. Trafzer simply asks readers to enter the Native American world through the teachings and tellings of the Wahteetash, the first peoples.

Star Wolf! by Ted White Pdf

Makstarn was ugly, an outcast in the midst of the beautiful people of his tribe. Where they were tall and slender, he was short and squat. Where they were golden, touched with the beauty of the dawn, he was black and hairy . . . and hated by those of his own generation. It little mattered that the Elders respected him for what he was . . . and for what his father, Max Quest, had been; the young were all that mattered. And their hatred drove him at last from the tribe, and on an impossible journey in search of the memory of his father . . . and in search of his own manhood.

Wolf's Edge by W. D. Gagliani Pdf

Can one werewolf stop a pack of super-wolves? Nick Lupo is a homicide cop with a difference. He’s a werewolf. He’s worked hard to control his condition, but it isn’t easy to contain the beast inside him. It also means he has some very powerful enemies. Wolfpaw Security Services is a mercenary organization that wants Lupo dead. They want to infiltrate the U.S. military with their own werewolves and they can’t let anyone—especially a fellow-werewolf like Lupo—stand in their way. Wolfpaw’s genetic experiments have created a “super-wolf” nearly invulnerable to silver, and soon their ranks will be filled with these invincible warriors. Can one wolf—even a fierce beast like Lupo—face the fangs and claws of a pack of these killers and hope to survive?

Dark Wolf (Shapestepper Series Book 1) by Rebecca Scharpf Pdf

All he wants is to be left alone. All they want is a leader to hold them together. For decades, a pack of wild wolves has stood between the small village of Millhall and outside threats. What the villagers don’t know is that the howling entities protecting them are actually their next-door neighbors. Well, except for Fang, who would rather spend his time in wolf form than human. After all, why mingle with people when you can run alone, four paws solidly on the ground? It really is a shame the other Changers chose him as their leader, foiling his plan to spend the rest of his years in happy isolation. But when a village youth is injured and Fang stumbles into the heart of one of the Shaqui tribes living in the surrounding woods, he realizes his plan to live alone may need to be put on hold…at least long enough to stop an impending war. As the Changers try to untangle what, exactly, is behind the rising tension between Millhall’s villagers and the Shaqui tribes, Fang’s past explodes in his face in a way he’d never in his wildest dreams anticipated. Should he run—again? Or should he trust the team he’s worked so hard to keep at bay—a team that doesn’t care much for him, either… Check out the other books in the Shapestepper Series!: (#1) Dark Wolf (#2) Gray Blizzard (#3) Lost Pup
