The Writings of Tamarack Song

Introduction


From practical crafts and skills to child rearing and the quest for self-knowing, Tamarack's writings span the spectrum of Native lifeway. He has nearly 30 books worth of material, which are now being prepared for publication. Our goal is to produce two or three books a year. (Tamarack's foundational text, Journey to the Ancestral Self, was published in 1994 and is currently available.)

In the meantime, people are asking for guidance on vital topics. In order to meet the need, we are making some of Tamarack's unpublished materials available as self-published booklets, in both hand-bound printed versions and e-books. When the material appears in published book form, the booklets will be discontinued.

If you need information on a topic not covered by Journey to the Ancestral Self or these booklets, please contact us with your request and we will consider making it available.


* Denotes titles are first draft selections of Tamarack Song's two-volume magnum opus, Spirit Fire, slated to be published in 2011.
