Review # 1 was written on 2008-03-29 00:00:00 Nicholas Vanderwaard This book took me ten years to research and write. Its structure was inspired by both Susan Griffin' Woman and Nature, and Eduardo Galeano's Memory of Fire trilogy. I've written a little aboutmy research process in TheHistorian as Curandera, whicha ppears in my book, Medicine Stories.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-06-09 00:00:00 Benjamin Ney An intensely personal and poetic whirlwind history of civilization. I don't usually get into books that are overly optimistic and life affirming, but much of this book is that in a Howard Zinn sort of way. Its easy enough to set that aside though. She paints dazzling portraits of peoples lives that put the larger painting into perspective. Recommended if our interested in feminism, green anarchy, slave rebellion.
