This collection of fifteen stories from Warlipiri elders reflects the importance of the Dreaming in all of its manifestations. Recorded and translated here for the first time are stories rich with insight into Aboriginal spirituality and life - on subjects as diverse as adolescence; love; hatred; sexuality; marriage; family; war; peace; physical and psychological survival; and aging. Told with wisdom and elegance; and illustrated with Warlipiri maps; these narratives evoke the integral relationship between the Australian landscape and Aboriginal spirituality.

2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. church historyBy Robert D. KeiserA good written history how thinking people acted on their knowledge of Christianity when they were able to read the bible in English; how they tried to reform the cities in which they lived; Jesus in the first century taught his followers not to involve themselves in politics and government for good reason. the catholic church created havoc on the world because of their taking over the roman empire; when the reformed church followed the same pattern similar results; Luther also. I did enjoy the historicity of the subject. thanks for your work.1 of 3 people found the following review helpful.
