Book Description Softcover. Condition: New. 60310th. <div>Named one of the ten best spiritual books of the twentieth century by Philip Zaleski of HarperSanFrancisco, <i>Black Elk Speaks</i> is the acclaimed story of Lakota visionary and healer Nicholas Black Elk (1863 1950) and his people during the momentous, twilight years of the nineteenth century. Black Elk grew up in a time when white settlers were invading the Lakotas' homeland, decimating buffalo herds and threatening to extinguish the Lakotas' way of life. Black Elk and other Lakotas fought back, a dogged resistance that resulted in a remarkable victory at the Little Bighorn and an unspeakable tragedy at Wounded Knee. <br><br>Beautifully told by the celebrated poet and writer John G. Neihardt, <i>Black Elk Speaks</i> offers much more than a life story. Black Elk's profound and arresting religious visions of the unity of humanity and the world around him have transformed his account into a venerated spiritual classic. Whether appreciated as a collaborative autobiography, a history of a Native American nation, or an enduring spiritual testament for all humankind, <i>Black Elk Speaks</i> is unforgettable.<br><br><br><br>This special edition features all three prefaces to <i>Black Elk Speaks</i> that John G. Neihardt wrote at different points in his life, a map of Black Elk's world, a reset text, a listing of Lakota words newly translated and reproduced using the latest orthographic standards, and color paintings by Lakota artist Standing Bear that have not been widely available for decades.<br><br></div> Seller Inventory # DADAX0871296152
