The Author is an enrolled Oglala Sioux tribal member, OST 15287. After serving in Korea he earned an undergraduate degree (St. Johns University MN). He rejoined the Marine Corps to become a fighter pilot. Major McGaa returned from 110 combat missions to dance in six annual Sioux Sun Dances. He is a Bush Award recipient wherein he studied under two Sioux holy men, Chief Eagle Feather and Chief Fools Crow, and Ben Black Elk, the interpreter for Black Elk Speaks, by John Neihardt. Eagle Man holds a law degree from the University of South Dakota. The Spirituality Series of books began with a trip to Spain to speak at several colleges and a University. Similar to John Cornwell’s (Hitler’s Pope) and James Carroll’s (Constantine’s Sword) who had shocked reactions upon discovering their information in Vatican archives, I was also shocked to discover the reaction of the Spanish populace’s negativity regarding Organized Religion. England and Australia were no surprise, however, for I have been hearing their rejecting commentary and viewing their decaying, vacant churches over several decades. A rich panorama of our native heritage which allows the seeker access to the heart of the Path of Beauty. Ed McGaa has walked this path so that all people may live in harmony." Samie Sams, Hancoka Olowanpi, author of Midnight Song: Quest for the Vanished Ones "Ed McGaa is one of the first persons who can write about 0glala religion in the first person because he has lived it. For years anthropologists have hoped a Native American would portray that society from the inside out. Ed McGaa has. It's about time." William K. Powers, author of 0glala Religion "Fascinating as well as inspiring reading. Ed McGaa makes an excellent spiritual guide and intellectual teacher . . . The information stimulates the mind, the drawings delight the eye, and the ideas soothe the spirit." Jack Weatherford, author of Indian Givers "Profound and insightful . . . Mother Earth Spirituality will be of great importance to those of us, both 'rainbow' and non-Indian people, who walk over land in search of a deeper spiritual life . . . For us, this book is an invaluable guide showing us how to do it." 230 pages.
