<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>John takes you on a journey of deep compassion, sadness, hope and joy as he paints a vivid picture of the lasting impacts of historical and intergenerational trauma, healing and wisdom. Through his personal mantra of "Opportunity, Effort and Ability," we recognize his strong instinct and feel his desire to be a better human being, to be of service to others and to seek and manifest social justice. Every Native parent, schoolteacher, social worker, public health professional, tribal council member, urban Natives and anyone wishing to be trauma and healing informed should read John's story. John has been a mentor and hero of mine for decades and now even more after reading his powerful and heartfelt memoir. Crazy Wolf is a natural leader and his teachings will continue on through <em>Crazy Wolf: A Half-Breed Story</em>. Jillene Joseph (A'aniiih), founder and Executive Director, Native Wellness Institute</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>An intriguing life story about pain, joy and discovery leading to numerous accomplishments. As a half breed myself I felt absorbed by John's story relating to his journey. Over the years my tribe has requested his assistance with several grant writing projects and help with horse therapy workshops at our summer youth culture camps. Caroline Cruz (Warm Springs), General Manager, Health and Human Services, Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation of Oregon</p><p><br></p><p>What a pleasure to read this honest and heartfelt account of a life well lived despite adverse conditions. John is a humble man whose accomplishments, influence, and exploits actually exceed his telling. It's a rare quality for an Indian storyteller to tell an engaging and compelling story without embellishing. This work honors his friends, family, and colleagues with recognition and gratitude. He tells the truth and makes us smile. The reach of his influence goes far and wide in Indian Country. I know, because, as one of his students, I would never have been able to walk my path without his encouragement. Terry L Cross, (Seneca Nation), DHL (hon), MSW, ACSW, LCSW, Founder and Senior Advisor, National Indian Child Welfare Association</p><p><br></p><p>alcoholic situations. In his autobiography he is thoughtful for folks who came into his life, especially BJ and his healer Koda, and his many friends made while he lived life. Through his athletic ability and kinship with others, he developed into a kind and thoughtful man yet this value was always there, just beneath the skin. It's truly difficult to understand what a half breed Indian who has been disenfranchised early on in life can eventually be whole and feel free to be who he is. Patrick Weasel Head (Blackfeet), PhD, former Missoula City Councilman and Vietnam Veteran</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><br>
