About the Book

About the Author

Paula Underwood was a lineal descendant of Tsilikomah, an Oneida healer in Cascaskia on the Shenango River ca. 1800, who took up responsibility for a vast Oral Tradition and Learning Way from an Erie/Oneida Keeper of the Old Things who was her patient. This tradition was handed down in her family and designed to be shared with “all Earth’s children with Listening Ears.” Paula was born and raised in Los Angeles, and lived for 30 years in the Washington, D.C. area, where the poetry in this volume was written. She lived the last twelve years of her life in northern California. Paula’s books, including the acclaimed Oral History The Walking People, are available from A Tribe of Two Press, P. O. Box 133, Bayfield CO 81122, 1(800) 995-3320. http://www.tribeoftwopress.com
