Book Description
Excerpt from The Fairview Idea: A Story of the New Rural Life In the month of August, 1914, war became the chief occupation of the whole world. No one can even conjecture as to the length of the time which must elapse before average humanity will be able to see world affairs in the pure white light of peace. Things which preceded the World War will be reconsidered in the dull baleful glow which preceded the explosion; and all matters following its conclusion will be looked at in the light of its immeasurable effects. In this book all consideration of the war is purposely excluded; for it relates to the inner life of the rural community which must go on wholesomely forever if our nation is to be equal to the responsibilities of either peace or war. And yet the Great War changed radically our manner of looking at agricultural problems. After we engaged in the conflict we suddenly became more concerned about farms and farming, if not better informed or more intelligent.

Book Description
"For the Native American artist, art exists primarily to give form to spirit, and there is spirit in everything one sees." (Edward Gunts, Baltimore Sun, September 21, 2004) Rare is the story told simply that transforms despair and the tension of change into joy. Eyes of the Seer flows from the soul and sings through the heart as though all the world were, in a single moment, one harmonious, indivisible life.

Book Description
In my stories, we encounter the sorrows that often go unspoken. The stories pull back the curtain on the realities faced by women and girls in rural areas, where access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities can be limited. They shed light on the unequal burdens women bear and the strength it takes to carry them. But within the pages of these tales, there is also hope. The book is not just about despair; it is about resilience. It showcases the wisdom passed down from mothers to daughters, the rituals that bind communities, and the courage to challenge the status quo.
