Blackfoot Lodge Tales de George Bird Grinnell

Blackfoot Lodge Tales

Autor George Bird Grinnell
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mai 2001
Over 100 years ago author George Bird Grinnell, editor of Forest and Stream, founder of the Audubon Society and an advisor to President Theodore Roosevelt, was a famed explorer, naturalist and pioneer conservationist. Keenly interested in the lifestyles and welfare of Native Americans, particularly the Blackfoot, Cheyenne and Pawnee, he journeyed westward during summers to hunt and explore with the Indians, and to study their rapidly vanishing culture. Blackfoot religion, philosophy, literature and ethics were all combined in the stories they told, and the Blackfoot storytellers relied on memory to convey the tales from one generation to the next. In Blackfoot Lodge Tales, Grinnell documents these stories as told to him by the Blackfoot, illustrating them with authentic Blackfoot drawings.

Notă biografică

Burkholder Media Classics..."Of making many books there is no end" (Ecclesiastes 12:12). Everywhere we look we can find books. Hardly is there a place, whether in the home, in the shop, in the workplace, in the museum, or in the religious institution, where we do not find some type of literature. And like Solomon said, "of making many books there is no end." It was true in his day, and it is true in our day. And this is why Burkholder Media has undertaken the task of reprinting Public Domain works that have been written and preserved through the ages. Public Domain books are not under copyright stipulations, and can be distributed freely without permission from the original publisher. But in so doing, Burkholder Media takes every effort to giver proper credit to whom credit is due. Therefore, these reprints retain all pertinent information to acknowledge the original authors and publishers. There is no lack of books being written today, and many good books can be found among this plethora of writing. And yet, there is something special about old books, books that have stood the test of time. This does not mean all old books are good books. In fact, many of the books that have been preserved throughout history are not fit for the Christian mind. Many of them are of little use to the Christian, and as a company, Burkholder Media has undertaken the task of reprinting only those books of value to the Christian mind. Burkholder Media appreciates any and all feedback from our readers. We strive toward excellency, not only in the layout of our books, but also in the character of our books. Everything we do, we do to the glory of God. May He alone be glorified for any and all good that may come from this project of reprinting books that the whole family can be edified wherewith and strengthened in their Christian faith.
