Softcover. Condition: Like New. First Edition. Signed by George R. Janecek (Photographer) and by Carolyn Janecek (Preface By). One Voice Rising is a memoir by Ute healer, elder, and historian Clifford Duncan, as told to Anglo writer, Linda Sillitoe. Duncan (1933 to 2014) was an inspiring leader and a powerful medicine man, and he was, as Sillitoe wrote, simultaneously one of the most bicultural and traditional American Indians in the West. Duncan here covers both personal and tribal history during a crucial period in the tribe?s development. His discussions with Sillitoe offer a unique look at individual and societal issues, including the Native American Church, powwows and tribal celebrations, and interactions with the larger world. George Janecek?s photographs of Clifford Duncan and his world expand the impact of Duncan?s words. George R. Janecek has been taking photographs since 1959. Janecek?s work has appeared nationally and internationally in exhibitions and various publications, including Life Magazine. His photographs encompass the lives of ordinary, working people: from dancers, stone masons, and commercial fishermen on the East Coast to coal miners, ranchers, cowboys, Native Americans of the Mountain West and the Indigenous peoples of the Sierra Tarahumara in Mexico. He's spent over twenty-five years documenting the life of Clifford Duncan on the Ute reservation to produce a book celebrating the life of the Ute spiritual leader. Signed by Photographer.…
