This is a fine and splendid book in all respects. Dr. Brian Rice, Mohawk scholar, takes an extraordinary journey, as seen by the People of the Longhouse, on a fascinating trail into the cosmos of the Iroquois. From the Creation onward, he guides the reader epoch by epoch, vista by vista—all integrally related—until this vital, living and interpretive cosmic totality is seen in all of its great complexity and full richness. He draws both on his own extensive and deeply reflective cultural life—and also from the oral traditions of knowledgeable elders.""—Hunter Gray (Abenaki / Mohawk), University of North Dakota
