Witness the time-honored practices of the Navajo from wisdom-keepers who live close to the land and follow ancestral ways. In the nineteen chapters of We Walk the Earth in Beauty, readers will learn practical ways to live in harmony with an austere landscape.

"Everything that surrounds us gives us life," writes Navajo educator Lisa Puente Siyuja in the foreword. "Throughout history, the Din? (Navajo) have learned how to live off the land and provide for their families. ... This book captures the essence of such stories of Din? families who continue this sacred relationship with Mother Earth."

Readers can watch and listen as the Hazel Nez weaves a rug, Roberta Blackgoat cooks a goat, and Sam Worker stitches a pair of moccasins for his wife. When author Kathy Eckles Hooker and photographer Helen Lau Running collected these stories and photographs in the 1980s, such methods were widespread among the older generations. As those generations pass away, these traditional methods are in danger of being lost. Thanks to its careful descriptions of time-honored practices, this book is like a time capsule, holding Navajo wisdom for everyone to appreciate.
