Thhis is one of Mr. Marshall's best books
Joseph Marshall has a unique way of writing. He writes about many things that Native people don't talk about. Joseph has a way of writting that flows and is very natural. I highly recommend this book to those who are intrested in Lakota culture from someone who recieved these stories first hand.

nice book
This is an enjoyable book, easy to read and full of useful thoughts. I have read several of Marshall's books; this is one of my two favorites. The other being "The Dance House."

These are real stories.
