  • Best books I have ever read.

  • despite the naysayers, Tom Brown Jr IS a national hero/treasure. period.

    it is easy to critisize his mistakes and shortcomings... lets not forget that he is not a god, he is an imperfect human like us all...

    his former head instructor told me on myspace that he has seen tom do some really stupid things and has also seen tom do some miraculous things. tom makes no claims to be able to "city-shuffle" on water... he is human .

    his books alone have brought miracles into my life for years.

  • In his book the Tracker..he says he spent many hours in the library. He was a boyscout..Here he could have found Indian customs, Truth=. An Apace eler would never turn his back on his own people and family denying them the benefit of his gifts and teachings-he says he had family. Think people.. A medicine man lives to serve people..he would not isolate himself his whole life as in Brown's story. Brown condemns the way man lives but doesnt' he drive, take planes,use electrcity.

  • HE HIS A LEGEND I HOPE HE PASSES ALL THE INFO HE GOT FROM GRANDFATHER FOR FREE.

    SINCE GRANDFATHER WOULD HAVE WANTED IT THAT WAY....

  • It saddens me a bit to see what I am sure are decent people arguing about this because there is no excuse for it other than two other kinds of sadness: the wish to be, yet have not found; and, have found, but do not fully understand. My wish was strong so I wanted what I needed and the way was opened to me. Everything else is just a story.

  • It's the same story every time. A man with "special gifts" has a vision, and suddenly he has followers, and starts a religion that makes money. People want to believe. But myths and stories (which is what the Apache grandfather is) help guide people's lives and are inspiring even when we know they aren't factually true. So just what, exactly is making Mr. Brown hold onto this story? Well, it keeps turning out good milk, so he keeps milking it. Like any good business man.

  • YYEEEEAH COOL SONG

  • And the last reason is we as Native Americans, whether we are Lipan or MicMac or Haudanausee....etc... we do not charge to learn from our people our customs and traditions if asked in a proper manner. That is our way always...

  • Ok Adam, here are the reasons... 1) there is no history of a Stalking Wolf among our people (meaning Lipans); 2) Even if this man was taught by a Lipan elder, holy or medicine man, he would not be considered a member of the Nde because of being Euroamerican descent; 3) Because he is taking advantage of our Non-Federally recognized status, he can claim whatever he would like and tell us there was nothing we could do about it because the BIA has not officially recognized our people.

  • @LanzaVolante Can I ask what your reasons for this are?
