The Sacred: Ways of Knowledge, Sources of Life.
Tsaile, AZ: Navajo Community College Press, 1996.
This book explains life traditions and customs as they are
practiced among various Native American tribes in North America.
Core beliefs and practices remain immutable, but traditional life
ways are ever evolving within the changing requirements of the
community. Some remain distinct to certain tribes; others can be
viewed as pan-tribal. The authors examine contemporary Native
American ways of approaching the sacred in the context of today's
world.
