Ancient Echoes: The Anasazi Book of Chants
by Mary Summer Rain
An interesting if somewhat frustrating read. The collected prayers are simply written and often very affecting, but the whole suffers from having no real context. This might not be an issue with those who are familiar with the Anasazi culture but I know nothing about it and could really have used an introductory, historical overview - there were several places I was completely lost. Also, I have to admit I side-eyed the little forward where the author claimed that the prayers derived from "spiritual memory recall". I don't know what that means, and it makes me wonder how accurate the information is.
