"These stories are our gift to the world. They are not guarded secrets; they are markers on the road to lifethe answers soaring across the open prairies of our lives on the winds of wisdom helping us, perhaps helping you." Joseph M. Marshall III

"Marshall beautifully imparts Lakota wisdom. . .he certainly knows how to weave a story. An inspiring guide for a wide audience." Library Journal

The Lakota Way received the prestigious Audie Award, considered the "Oscar" award of the audiobook industry, in 2004 for the category of best inspirational audio.

The myth of Deer Woman teaches a lesson on respect. The legend of Crazy Horse illuminates a lesson on humility. And the story of Eagle brings home the importance of compassion. These stories from the heart of Lakota culture and its survival and their meanings still resonate deeply with our daily lives.

Rich with storytelling, history, folklore, and Marshall's own personal experiences, The Lakota Way expresses the heart of Native American philosophy and the twelve core qualities that are crucial to the Lakota way of living: bravery, fortitude, generosity, wisdom, respect, honor, perseverance, love, humility, sacrifice, truth, and compassion.

Compelling and profound, The Lakota Way gives a fresh outlook to those searching for a new perspective on spiritual and ethical living.
