Download or read book Skinwalker written by Gary Swanson and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A word of caution to our readers; whether one chooses to believe the information on the powers associated with the witch known as "yee naaldlooshii" (Skinwalker) or not; the authors recommend following the policy that we ourselves strictly adhere to. We never say either the Navajo word, nor its English interpretation aloud. The Skinwalker stories in this collection take place near the famous Skinwalker Ranch and in the Navajo Nation. We began our reports on the Skinwalker purely by chance while researching Native American curses with a Shaman friend of ours. There seemed to be a fine line between the tribal beliefs and when we were introduced to another Native holy man from yet a different tribe, there were some similarities, but with a certain faction of its people there was a reference made to yee naaldlooshii. (The avenging witch of the Navajo Nation.) That's where the cut-off came. The Skinwalker belongs totally to the Navajo people and this subject brought up a curtain between our research into tribal customs. Researching the Skinwalker has been totally different for us, and we can't say it's been enjoyable. The open introductions and friendly sharing of information we experienced when researching Native American Curses did not carry over to Skinwalker research Although this release required an adjustment to our methods of research, we have now been forced to make many more security checks and precautions, both for the protection of our story submitters and our personal safety; which we must say has on many occasions been really on the edge of safe procedures. When one sees a heavily disguised person with whom you have been speaking for half an hour, walk into the semi-darkness outside of the building and totally disappear is scary enough, but to see that person transform into a black-tail deer in front of your eyes and run into a nearby forest, is unnerving to say the least. This kind of "freak-out moment" isn't something one can brush aside. Driving along a one lane highway with the full moon enhancing the spooky rock formations of a lonely, desert road can become even scarier if suddenly one notices an antelope keeping pace with your sixty miles an hour. As if that scare isn't enough, couple that with the fact that you notice as the animal cuts off across the desert it's running on its hind legs! We were fortunate that when we began our research into this mysterious witch, we had been thoroughly briefed by a medicine man of the Sioux tribe, and friends with the Apache, Comanche and several others about the tricks we may be confronted with. Even though the yee naaldlooshii is solely attached to the Navajo people, the other tribes are well aware of its existence, however, it has been explained to us in a "round about" way that the witches and curses associated with the individual tribes do not seem to ever cross the line. We chose early on to do our best to report the stories submitted to us without passing judgement. Many of our submissions require that we seek further information and clarification of controversial reports and we appreciate the guidance of our Native American advisors and to the Navajo people themselves, for the risks many of them have taken to insure everyone's safety and to make the research most interesting.

Emergencies are what she’s paid for. When an earthquake tremor—almost unheard of in this part of the world—spooks the stable’s most valuable stallion, Lynn decides to ride him home through Gordath Wood rather than try to load him into a van.

Lynn has stumbled into a hole between worlds, and now finds herself in a world at war, in a medieval society that doesn’t have much use for women.

Download or read book A Portal to Paradise written by Alden C. Hayes and published by . This book was released on 1999-07 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arizona's rugged Chiricahua Mountains have a special place in frontier history. They were the haven of many well-known personalities, from Cochise to Johnny Ringo, as well as the home of prospectors, cattlemen, and hardscrabble farmers eking out a tough living in an unforgiving landscape. In this delightful and well-researched book, Alden Hayes shares his love for the area, gained over fifty years. From his vantage point near the tiny twin communities of Portal and Paradise on the eastern slopes of the Chiricahuas, Hayes brings the famous and the not-so-famous together in a profile of this striking landscape, showing how place can be a powerful formative influence on people's lives. When Hayes first arrived in 1941 to manage his new father-in-law's apple orchard, he met folks who had been born in Arizona before it became a state. Even if most had never personally worried about Indian attacks, they had known people who had. Over the years, Hayes heard the handed-down stories about the area's early days of Anglo settlement. He also researched census records, newspaper archives, and the files of the Arizona Historical Society to uncover the area's natural history, prehistory, Spanish and Mexican regimes, and particularly its Anglo history from the mid nineteenth century to the beginning of World War II. His book is a rich account of the region and more, a celebration of rural life, brimming with tales of people whose stories were shaped by the landscape. Today the Chiricahuas are a magnet for outdoor enthusiasts and the site of the American Museum of Natural History's Southwestern Research Station—and still a rugged area that remains off the beaten track. Hayes brings his straightforward and articulate style to this captivating account of earlier days in southeastern Arizona and opens up a portal to paradise for readers everywhere.
