The Lakota Way Native American wall calendar features original art from Lakota and Iroquois artist Jim Yellowhawk and text by author Joseph M. Marshall III. The Lakotan lunar calendar is featured with the standard calendar and includes the Lakota names for the months, such as When Geese Return and When Leaves Fall. Marshall's text presents a traditional Lakota virtue for each month, guiding the reader along the Lakota path of inspiration, ethics, and wisdom. Marshall is a teacher, historian, Lakota craftsman, and writer. He has authored several screenplays in addition to fifteen books, including the highly acclaimed Walking with Grandfather, The Lakota Way, and The Journey of Crazy Horse. Marshall is a member of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe and was involved with the television miniseries Into the West as narrator, actor, and consultant. Artist Jim Yellowhawk, who views everything as a possible canvas, uses diverse media to create authentic and striking images that are evocative of Lakota star knowledge and the unique Lakota way of life. Amber Lotus calendars have been illuminating spirit in the world for 25 years.

I thought there would be more variety in the illustrations. Every other one is horses, and the style makes all of them look pretty much the same - fighting warriors - and not at all appealing. My intention after the year was out, since I usually love everything native american, was to possibly frame these as I have with other calendars, but now I think I will only choose one or two of these to frame - Wisdom and Perseverance. Overall quite a disappointment.
Nice artwork, a beautiful calendar. Probably frame some of the pages when the calendar becomes obsolete next year. I gave it to my college math teacher wife. She put it on her door. A lot of her students have asked her where she got it. They are impressed, too
I love it. The pictures are wonderful. Each month is shown a virtue and in this cruel world man should stop a moment and think different and better. I also enjoyed for the respective month of the Sioux (Lakota).Very highly recommend.
It is perfect. I especially like the Lakota words for the months. I am looking forward to the life lessons on the pages to come.Thank you!
I first encountered "The Lakota Way" several years ago through the audiobook read by the author, re-played several times as my husband and I wandered among the natural wonders of the southwestern states. This was a very moving spiritual experience for both of us. The calendar is a welcome daily reminder of that time and provides a perfect means - for me - to keep track of future commitments and the need to "keep going" - as the author's grandfather advised.
The artwork and writing are same or similar to past couple of years.While the artist is spectacular, the pictures are so similar. If you're buying for the first time,you'll love it.
bough for my husband who has been in inmate for 25 years and belives in the way of the lokota indians, has been a great help for him to keep his every day in order..thank you..
I love that every month has a different story or a different lesson or myth that is now explained. The colors are vibrant and best of all its made from recycled paper.
