In Shadow of the Jicarilla Owl, John Noah finds himself immersed in the strange spiritual world of the Jicarilla Apache Indians. Accidently, or perhaps through fate, he meets an old, lonely, sometimes comical, Jicarilla man, claiming to be a Shaman. The old man tells him "I'm waiting for the Owl; he's coming soon." Later, he explains, "Abáachii not speak of dead or dying. It bring bad spirits. When we say Owl took someone, they are gone, not to return." Noah realizes the old man is alone and is seeking help. He develops a liking for the old man. In frightening circumstances, Noah shifts between the orderly physical world he has lived in as an engineer and a totally unfamiliar, supernatural, spiritual world. Ignoring a warning from the old man, that the Owl will be very close, John Noah returns to the Jicarilla reservation and is caught up by forces beyond his control. He unwittingly becomes a target and the center of attention in a deadly struggle for justice.

And in a hauntingly beautiful land, Lansing must walk a dangerous path between hard evidence and fleeting visions—to cleanse a blood rage from the earth….

This evenhanded history of the Jicarilla Apache tribe of New Mexico highlights their long history of cultural adaptation and change--both to new environments and cultural traits. Concentrating on the modern era, 1846-1970, Veronica Tiller, herself a Jicarilla Apache, tells of the tribe's economic adaptations and relations with the United States government. Originally published in 1983, this revised edition updates the account of the Jicarilla experience, documenting the significant economic, political, and cultural changes that have occurred as the tribe has exercised ever greater autonomy in recent years.

Jerrold E. Levy's masterly analysis of Navajo creation and origin myths shows what other interpretations often overlook: that the Navajo religion is as complete and nuanced an attempt to answer humanity's big questions as the religions brought to North America by Europeans. Looking first at the historical context of the Navajo narratives, Levy points out that Navajo society has never during its known history been either homogeneous or unchanging, and he goes on to identify in the myths persisting traditions that represent differing points of view within the society. The major transformations of the Navajo people, from a northern hunting and gathering society to a farming, then herding, then wage-earning society in the American Southwest, were accompanied by changes not only in social organization but also in religion. Levy sees evidence of internal historical conflicts in the varying versions of the creation myth and their reflection in the origin myths associated with healing rituals. Levy also compares Navajo answers to the perennial questions about the creation of the cosmos and why people are the way they are with the answers provided by Judaism and Christianity. And, without suggesting that they are equivalent, Levy discusses certain parallels between Navajo religious ideas and contemporary scientific cosmology. The possibility that in the future Navajo religion will be as much altered by changing conditions as it has been in the past makes this fascinating account all the more timely.
