When Zach Connors and his pa left their Kentucky homestead in the summer of 1824 to see the Rocky Mountains, he didn't realize he would never see his childhood home again or that he would find love, friendship, fame, and a new home in this wild and harsh wilderness. After a grizzly kills his pa, Zach struggles to survive a cold and brutal winter alone. After killing a rouge grizzly and fighting hostile Indians on his own, he becomes known as Grizzly Killer and is respected throughout the West. Along with his dog, Jimbo, whom the Indians call the Great Medicine Dog, he finds Running Wolf, an injured Ute warrior, and together they fight off a hostile war party. They rescue two Shoshone sisters from the brutality of a French trapper and take them as wives.

Twelve-year-old Okwaho’s life has suddenly changed. While out hunting with his best friend, his friend is kidnapped by marauders from a neighboring tribe. Okwaho barely escapes back to his village where everyone lives in fear of raids and killings: The five tribes of the Iroquois have been at war with each other for far too long, and no one can even remember what it was like to live in peace. Okwaho seeks only revenge, which will just perpetuate the violence. But before he can retaliate, a visitor with a message of peace comes to him in the woods.

This first complete account of the Lakota Indians traces their rich and often surprising history from the early 16th to the early 21st century. Pekka Hämäläinen explores the Lakotas' roots as marginal hunter-gatherers and reveals how they reinvented themselves twice: first as a river people who dominated the Missouri Valley, America's great commercial artery, and then - in what was America's first sweeping westward expansion - as a horse people who ruled supreme on the vast high plains.

Beautifully Written and Narrated
These short stories are wonderful! Even my 8 year old was intrigued. We listened to them on his way to school this morning. As I dropped him off at school he said, “Mom don’t listen to the rest without me!” I highly recommend The Lakota Way.

A series of six short stories linking the Lakota people to the flora, fauna, earth, and each other. This was a peaceful listen. I originally searched for Diversity and Inclusion books and was so pleased to land on The Lakota Way.

A way to see, & to take a moment to give thanks
This book was great. I wish it was longer, the stories are simple lessons that make one appreciate the gifts we are surrounded by. The connection to animals and the elements- I can't wait to share these stories with my kids and help them see the beauty in them that I do- each in their own way. Thank you for sharing.

Stirringly Beautiful Lakota Stories of Life & Love
The Lakota Way is deeply touching, both in the actual stories brought forth by Joseph Marshall and in the music and production of the tales. This is a book that you will want to listen to over and over again, for it brings a peace and awareness of all that we have been gifted with: the beauty of the created earth, the companionship of those we love, the sacrifice willingly given to rescue us when we are in danger, the risk we take in venturing out and allowing ourselves to put the welfare of another before our own. There is much wisdom in these stories. They are so much more than folklore, yet they are also that. Lovely stories of animals, nature and the earth that God has given us. The fact that the native people knew Him as the Great Spirit is of no consequence. They KNEW him . . . and knew him well. They respected all that he created. They were humble and kind. They were generous. Yet they could, when they needed to, find strength and go to battle. They respected their women, their wives. My favorite of all these stories, I believe is the wife who went after her captured husband . . . from no moccasins to many moccasins at the end of her life.
