For more than a century, the Northern Arapaho people have lived on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming—the fourth largest reservation in the country. In The Four Hills of Life, Jeffrey D. Anderson masterfully draws together aspects of the Northern Arapahos’ world—myth, language, art, ritual, identity, and history—to offer a vivid picture of a culture that has endured and changed over time. Anderson shows that Northern Arapaho unity and identity from the nineteenth century on derive primarily from a shared system of ritual practices that transmit vital cultural knowledge. He also provides an in-depth study of the problems that Euro-American society continues to impose on reservation life and of the responses of the Northern Arapahos.

Life is often viewed as a continuum that is judged by its ultimate outcome. In contrast, native Americans view life as a journey over four symbolic hills. Birth to teenage; Teenage to early manhood; Early manhood to age maturity; (and most important) The Fourth Hill In Journey on the Four Hills, the author relates the lessons learned in his lifes journey. In relating the way love and fear bent his life, G.R.G.M. leaves a powerful, personal legacy that gives insight into a spiritual life and the lessons that shaped it. Journey on the Four Hills defies characterization: part autobiography, part self-help, part spiritual, and part just plain wisdom.

The prophecy said the deliverer would come to reestablish the rule of the Thanes. “Knowing no magic, he shall bring magic with him; being of Christ, he shall not be of the Church; being of few years, he shall be the eldest of all.” The priest believes Paul Owens to be the deliverer. If he is right, they will be rid of the devil gang forever. If he is wrong, it could cost him his soul. Paul doesn’t believe he is the answer to anybody’s prophecy, but if he isn’t, what is he doing here? The only way to know for sure is to find the Four Hills of Sealoch, where the Angel of Light and the Angel of Darkness are entombed...but which one will Paul resurrect?
