具体描述

内容简介

A beautiful woman appeared to the Lakota people at a time of great change and suffering. She gave them the pipe that has been part of their culture ever since, saying Wakan Tanka, the great spirit...smoke, and you will know he hears you. She is called the White Buffalo Woman because after giving the people this gift, she changed into a buffalo, reminding her tribespeople of their ties to nature.

In stirring prose and some of his most breathtaking images, widely celebrated author and illustrator Paul Goble brings this important legend to life. Goble includes an introductory note, detailed drawings of the peace pipe, and information about Pipestone Quarry, a National Monument central to this story.

精彩书评

"In his fluid retelling of the legend of the first peace pipe, Goble (The Return of the Buffaloes) handles sweeping Lakota history succinctly and assuredly, largely due to his compelling artwork. The opening spreads tell of the rebirth of the Lakota people after a flood covers the earth; an eagle rescues a drowning woman, and marries her, and the fruit of their union marks the birth of the new nation. Many generations later, driven from their land, the Lakota set out across the plains in search of buffalo. A beautiful and mysterious woman (the White Buffalo Woman) appears bearing the gift of a pipe that reunites them with their lost Buffalo Nation and with the Great Spirit. Ever sensitive to his audience, Goble handles difficult subjects with finesse. For example, while the spread entitled "Sadness of War" does not gloss over the facts ("Their houses were burned, and they were forced to leave their homeland in the forests"), Goble depicts the battle as if it were a tribal artifact painted on stretched buckskin. This approach stands out in contrast to his other illustrations, full-bleed spreads whose immediacy might have had a more disturbing effect on readers viewing a war scene. Goble's tale is truly for all ages; his message is one of hope for reconciliation among people, for peace and for faith."
