Quentin H. Young has helped put the breath of life into the vision of the great holy man Black Elk. I do believe Black Elk's spirit must have given him guidance and inspiration. I only hope the reader will be touched by this knowledge and understanding of how we can all, together, dance under the great Tree of Life as one people within the sacred hoop. Then, the vision of Black Elk would come as a beautiful sunrise and bring a new re-creation to humanity. Thank you, my friend. We are all related.
Chief Steve McCullough, Salt-Creek Sun Dance.
Quentin H. Young has accomplished for me what no other author has ever been able to do. For the first time in my many attempts to understand Black Elk's vision, I have an understanding thanks to Young's breakdown of the vision. Paragraph by paragraph the vision is broken down into understandable bits, like devouring a great lunch one morsel at a time. Added to the information are the tidbits from Young's own life and visions, making it a personal story as well as a story that history is still searching answers for. Young's great descriptive phrasing of his visions took me with him, giving answers about why one Sun Dances or seeks a vision quest. Not a holy book, but a human book, making sense and explaining many Lakota terms and customs I never had the privilege of knowing. An exciting read, full of humor, spirit and the interpretation of a knowledgeable man willing to share his own visions as well as that of Black Elk. This book is for those who wish to understand Black Elk's Great Vision, the spirituality behind it, and an insight as to why modern man still seeks visions, and where these visions may take him or her.
