My first book, an edited anthology, Original Instructions – Indigenous Teachings For A Sustainable Future has been published in February 2008 (Inner Traditions / Bear & Company). I edited this book from Native American talks given at the Bioneers Conference over the past fifteen years. Contributors include the late John Mohawk, Chief Oren Lyons, Winona LaDuke, Jeannette Armstrong, Katsi Cook, and John Trudell.
