The Ohlone Way by Malcolm Margolin

This quasi-historical, quasi-fanciful little book paints vivid pictures of the lives and culture of peaceful, dreaming, dancing, indigenous people who lived attuned with nature in California for thousands of years. Spending time in the Bay Area recently and chatting with Loren reminded me of how joyful it was to read this book years ago. I believe that as we re-imagine our institutions and communities it's powerful to reconnect with inspiring elements of ancient societies.
