Conjuring images that define his life -- from the vanishing farming and hunting traditions with which he was raised to his experiences in World War II as a member of a bomber crew -- he has produced a haunting, powerful work that expresses his devotion to the Cherokee religion and its harmony with the forces of Nature.Salisbury, Ralph J. is the author of 'Rainbows of Stone' with ISBN 9780816520367 and ISBN 0816520364.
