Book Description
'... a first class account by one of the great characters of the Territory. There were always decent Australians of all races and colours who formed friendships across artificial barriers and respected individuals as individuals. Let this book serve to restore some balance.' - The Honourable Austin Asche QC, Administrator (Ret'd), Northern Territory For more than a century the savagery of the indigenous tribes of Arnhem Land kept the white man at bay. Explorers passing through the rugged hinterland fired rockets at night to frighten off hostile tribesmen; there were chilling reports of cannibalistic rites.Into this country, at the end of the Second World War, came the young Syd Kyle-Little, patrol officer in the Australian Native Affairs Branch. His first assignment was to stop a tribal war.Between 1946 and 1950, on foot and by canoe, through crocodile-infested rivers, Kyle-Little made five, long patrols in the Arnhem Land reserve that stretches across the top of northern Australia. He arrived in this hostile land with the white man's law, and soon realised that often the black man's law was better.Kyle-Little's ambition was to preserve indigenous tribal and ceremonial life within the Arnhem Land. He intended his courageous actions to be incidental to the story, but they cannot be ignored, and when accounts of his thrilling adventures have been forgotten, the memory of Kyle-Little's life will stand as a stirring example of human endeavour. Whispering Wind was originally published in 1957.

Then Kinara, an old family friend, shows up on their doorstep and an unwise choice first puts her life in jeopardy, and not long after makes her the custodian of Zalek, the second Kiings son, who is just beginning to find the source of his own power. As Zalek struggles to discover out just who and what he is, events no longer allow for a leisurely exploration of his progress but accelerate the process in ways he never could have imagined as he is swept along by forces beyond his control. Everyone has secrets here and as life devolves into chaos some are exposed while some remain hidden as everyone must do what they can to survive.

Category : Conduct of life
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Whispering Winds of Change will appeal to lovers of alternative ideas and philosophies. Stuart Wilde challenges us to stand outside the usual paradigms of consciousness as "fringe dwellers." He asks us to observe the dying throes of what he calls the "world ego" - the embodiment of the manipulative and dominating force of the status quo. With his characteristic candor and wit, he plots a fascinating comparison between the overall global destiny and an individual's personal, sacred, inner journey. Wilde believes through quieting the ego and creating a rotation out of the three-dimensional world of external reality to the fourth dimension of the inner being, we can each offer serenity and healing to ourselves, and the rest of the world. Like his other books, this work is full of compelling ideas, unusual perceptions, and esoteric concepts for individuals who want to progress inwardly, while making a success of their lives in the external world.

Book Description
Short Spiritual/Mystical Stories and Poems brought to you by my forever friend - The Wind. The Wind is Whispering: Whispering in Your Ear is the sequel to or continuation of The Language of the Wind: Blueberry Juice for the Soul. In The Language of the Wind, we explored how the Wind speaks to us, the language it uses, and how it communicates. I shared nuggets of wisdom from the Wind which I call Blueberry Juice for the Soul. And I shared poems about Peace, Paradise, and Butterflies. All of whom rest in the Wind. In The Wind is Whispering, we’ll explore how the Wind speaks to us at different seasons. And I’ll share how the Wind Whispers to us in different situations. The Wind is Whispering contains perhaps more subtle messages than The Language of the Wind. That may be because the Wind now has your attention. Whatever the case, the messages contained within both books are deep. Rated G; Reading Level Very Easy 4th Grade.
