A collection of stories, poems and visions centered on the culture and experience of Native Americans. The collection dates to 1996 when Desert Dreams was published as a handbook and 1997 when Apache Pilgrim was published in the same format. Soar on the wings of the canyon crow, behold the white buffalo, share the Ghost Dance with Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull, hear the ancient prophecies, visit the Paiute prophet Wavoka, go on pilgrimage to Wounded Knee, watch the desert transformed to a spirit world through the eyes of the crow, the coyote, the wolf, the lizard and the snake. When Desert Dreams found its way to Long Standing Bear Chief in Montana, he wrote: "Let's get beyond the anger of mourning. Is there another way for us to get justice? I think so. Bring the whites to our way of belief and prayer." While the author did not fully appreciate his comments then, he has come to embrace them and hopes the sentiment is alive in this collection. The story Ghost Dance was originally published in Liquid Ohio and The Killing Spirit in the Haight Ashbury Literary Journal. Mitakuye Oyasin.
