Praise for Books in the Sacred Worlds Series:
"World Wisdom has recently inaugurated a series of books, "Sacred Worlds," that combines impressive imagery-both new and old fine arts, as well as contemporary and vintage photography-with selections from world faith traditions."
—Library Journal
"This delightful, pocket-sized book lends itself to becoming a companion for the thoughtful religious person on his or her journey through a secular world."
—Hannah Hunt, Trinity and All Saints College, UK on Christian Spirit
“One can get lost in contemplating these photographed faces, the weathered skin of natural men, the dignity which is the outward manifestation of inner strength, patience and wisdom. As for the quotations: [there is] simple grandeur from those who lived on the very face of the earth and the edge of existence.”
—James Alexander Thom, author of Follow the River; The Long Knife; and The Red Heart on Indian Spirit
“One of the great callings of art is to excavate a lost part of our culture, and the Fitzgeralds answer this summons handsomely here in a compact exploration of Native American women’s spirituality.”
—Publishers Weekly on The Spirit of Indian Women
“Editors Judith Fitzgerald and Michael Fitzgerald have assembled a fine collection of quotations from Christian saints, writers, and philosophers on the glories and wonders of the natural world. These are accompanied by breathtakingly beautiful photographs of nature.”
—Spirituality & Health magazine on The Sermon of all Creation
“A copy of this beautiful little book should be in every home.”
—Martin Lings, author of Muhammad: His Life Based on Earliest Sources, on Christian Spirit
“Indian Spirit is an exceptional book. What strength, dignity and beauty resides in those noble faces! A splendid piece of work by Michael Fitzgerald and World Wisdom.”
—Philip Zaleski, editor of The Best Spiritual Writing series on Indian Spirit
