(August House Dec. 15, 2005)
Prehistoric men and women chipped and painted their tales on cave walls. Native Americans handed down their stories in elaborate ceremonies. Today, television and films tell exciting stories of brave heroes and courageous conquerers. These classic stories give us an opportunity to see ourselves as the hero, the fool, the trickster, or the predator. Each of these heroic tales have survived through generations in many cultures from Europe to Asian to the Americas. This carefully selected collection of stories transcends our everyday routines to give us a brief look at other ways to overecome our greatest challenges or to pursue our most challenging dreams.
