The Lakota Way: Native American Wisdom on Ethics and Character 2012 Wall Calendar Review
The Lakota Way 2012 wall calendar features original ledger art and sacred mask paintings from Oglala Lakota artist Donald F. Montileaux and text by author Joseph M. Marshall III. Each spread includes the Lakota names for the months, such as "When Calves Are Red" and "When Things Ripen." Marshall's text presents a traditional Lakota virtue for each month, guiding the reader along the Lakota path of wisdom.
Marshall is a teacher, historian, Lakota craftsman and writer. He has authored several screenplays in addition to fourteen 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 most recently involved with the television miniseries Into the West as narrator, actor and consultant.
Donald F. Montileaux is a master ledger artist and, following in the footsteps of his forefathers, he has rekindled ledger art with a collection of striking images that capture the unique Lakota way of life.
