April 26, 2005 -- As an eight-year-old boy, Jay North read about the native people in Montana and always believed his dreams would lead him there one day. But it was not until 1990 that
Jay and his late wife Pamela were able to retire from the organic farming business and make the life-changing move to the Big Sky country of Jay's dreams.
Jay met Leonard J. Mountain Chief in Kalispell one day in 1990, and from their first meeting a strong bond was made, which continued until Leonard's passing in 1999 and beyond.
Open Spaces: My Life with Leonard J. Mountain Chief, Blackfeet Elder from Northwestern Montana has been a popular column, in newspapers, magazines and on the Internet, for over a year.
Now the most popular articles have been published in book format.
Open Spaces: My Life with Leonard J. Mountain Chief, Blackfeet Elder from Northwestern Montana is 174 pages of wisdom from a great Native American who was charged with passing his
heritage, both orally and in traditions of times many believe are long gone, to the younger members of the tribe. The book is complete with over 60 wonderful photographs of northwest
Montana.
This story is now told by one of the few white men adopted into the tribe. Learn the ancient rituals, ceremonies, traditions and cultures of a real tribe that is still in existence today
and offers exciting insight for the people of the future, through Jay's spirit talk with Leonard.
