Historie

In this ebook you will meet one of the most beautiful environmental texts ever written. It was elaborated based on the oration spoken by Chief Seattle, patriarch of the Duwamish and Suquamish Indians to Isaac Stevens, governor of the Washington Territory, at the site of the present metropolis of Seattle. Know the historical context, the characters of this negotiation and its outcome. See the breathtaking images of North American landscape that illustrate the words of the chief Seattle. Much more than a letter, this text is a lesson of love to the nature, to its creator and to the man himself, be it white, red, black, of any color or race.
