        <description><![CDATA[As predicted by the Bishop, Mark discovers that he had more to learn from the people of Kingcome than he had to teach them.  Although what they have taught him is hard to put into words, he finds that he has learned &quot;enough of the meaning of life to be ready to die&quot; (Chapter 20).From the villagers, Mark learns the value of living as one with the cycle of nature and in harmony with each other in true community.  He learns to...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The novel is set in the lush mountains along the coast of British Columbia in Canada, just north of the state of Washington.  The Indian village of Kingcome lies in the shadow of  &quot;Whoop-Szo&quot;, or the &quot;Noisy Mountain&quot;, so named because of the frequent noisy, clattering rock slides to which the mountain is prone.  According to ancient lore, in the village's early history, Kingcome was attacked by enemies, but &quot;the...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Mark Brian is sent to the village of Kwakiutl to be a preacher.  Although he doesn’t know it, he is very sick.  Mark learns that Kwakiutl is a culture unlike his because the residents work as a community. They value family, generosity and cooperation.  Mark isn’t sure he can fit in with the Indians, but he is willing to try.  He first meets the villagers and learns that they value spirituality - some had a vision concerning his...]]></description>
