Download or read book Of Wolves and Men written by Barry Lopez and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-05-31 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist: A “brilliant” study of the science and mythology of the wolf by the New York Times–bestselling author of Arctic Dreams (The Washington Post). When John Fowles reviewed Of Wolves and Men, he called it “A remarkable book, both biologically absorbing and humanly rich, and one that should be read by every concerned American.” In this National Book Award–shortlisted work, literary master Barry Lopez guides us through the world of the wolf and our often-mistaken perceptions of another species’ place on our shared planet. Throughout the centuries, the wolf has been a figure of fascination and mystery, and a major motif in literature and myth. Inspiring fear and respect, the creature has long exerted a powerful influence on the human imagination. Of Wolves and Men takes the reader into the world of the Canis lupus and its relationship to humankind through the ages. Lopez draws on science, history, mythology, and his own field research to present a compelling portrait of wolves both real and imagined, dispelling our fear of them while celebrating their place in our history, legends, and hearts. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Barry Lopez including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author’s personal collection.
Book Synopsis The Girl Who Sang to the Buffalo by : Kent Nerburn
Download or read book The Girl Who Sang to the Buffalo written by Kent Nerburn and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A haunting dream that will not relent pulls author Kent Nerburn back into the hidden world of Native America, where dreams have meaning, animals are teachers, and the “old ones” still have powers beyond our understanding. In this moving narrative, we travel through the lands of the Lakota and the Ojibwe, where we encounter a strange little girl with an unnerving connection to the past, a forgotten asylum that history has tried to hide, and the complex, unforgettable characters we have come to know from Neither Wolf nor Dog and The Wolf at Twilight. Part history, part mystery, part spiritual journey and teaching story, The Girl Who Sang to the Buffalo is filled with the profound insight into humanity and Native American culture we have come to expect from Nerburn’s journeys. As the American Indian College Fund has stated, once you have encountered Nerburn’s stirring evocations of America’s high plains and incisive insights into the human heart, “you can never look at the world, or at people, the same way again.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outcast. Undesirable. Human. I've been called all these things by the members of the two wolf packs who rule my world because I'm an oddity- a pure blood human. As a child, only the leader of the Thieves Guild was willing to take me in after my grandmother died, and I've spent my entire life using the skills he taught to become his most reliable thief. When the wolf packs discover that their bloodlines are losing the ability to shift from wolf to human, I suddenly become a prize worth fighting over. The only problem is I'm cursed. No one can touch me unless I want them to. If they try, the strange spell surrounding me begins to leech their life-force, killing them if they don't release their hold. What I once viewed as an affliction is now my greatest weapon. Now, the two warring kingdoms need me to preserve their humanity, and I have two alphas vying for the right to call me his queen. Damon, the king of the midnight pack who rule the day as humans and shift into their wolf forms at nightfall, is known to be ruthless, cruel, and selfish, but if he truly wants me to rule by his side, he'll have to show me that he's more than just a tyrant. Simon, the king of the dawn pack who rule the night as humans and shift into wolves at the breaking of dawn, is charming to the point of distraction, but behind those bright blue eyes and easy grin lurks a secret that might just undo us all. Each man may want to claim me as his, but they’ll have to try and win my heart first. Good luck with that…
