About This Item
Tight, clean and unmarked.-" In Black Elk Speaks and When the Tree Flowered, John C. Neihardt recorded the teachings of the Oglala holy man Black Elk, who had, in a vision, seen himself as the "sixth grandfather," the spiritual representative of the earth and of mankind. Raymond J. DeMallie makes available for the first time the transcripts from Neihardt's interviews with Black Elk in 1931 and 1944, which formed the basis for the two books. His introduction offers new insights into the life of Black Elk."- Photographs-The Sixth Grandfather refers to the way black Elk spoke of himself after a particular vision experience. In this 452-page work deMalle interprets the spiritual connections between Neihardt and Black Elk. Three maps and a few b/w photographs assist the text."
