Jay North Authors Open Spaces: My Life With Leonard J. Mountain Chief, A Bridge Between Peoples, Healing All Nations

For Immediate Release

OJAI, Calif./EWORLDWIRE/April 26, 2005 --- Most of what everyday Americans know about Native Americans comes from movies, TV and fiction books. Few people have the opportunity to know the people, the culture, the lifestyle, the beliefs and the rituals of these who came before them.

One man not only came to know this culture through a tribal chief but was adopted into the tribe as one of its own. The man, Jay North, has now written a book, not only about his own experiences, but a book that gives voice to a Chief, his people and their rapidly evaporating traditions.

Open Spaces: My Life with Leonard J. Mountain Chief is that book, and Leonard chose Jay as his successor to pass along the oral history of the Blackfoot tribe of Heart Butte, MT.

Part of a chief's responsibilities to the tribe is to keep and pass on the traditions, beliefs, ceremonies and heritage of the tribe. As a white adopted son, Jay has taken this responsibility with sobriety and reverence.

In Open Spaces: My Life with Leonard J. Mountain Chief, Jay lets Leonard speak for himself and for the tribe. Learn about nature from those who lived her, loved her, respected her and made the best use of her resources than perhaps any other culture in history.

Even more, explore with Jay the secret ceremonies of the Native Americans and their significance, Walking the Red Path, and what it truly means to hunt, fish and smoke a pipe.

For lovers of history, the West, Native American culture or seekers of a meaning for their life- Open Spaces: My Life with Leonard J. Mountain Chief is a must-read. Buy it now on Jay's Book Page at Going Organic
