An addendum to issue 02/18 for subscribers is in the mail. There will be a relatively large store update in a few days. Also: we are starting to choose the bookstores instead of it being the other way around.
Enjoy the brief surrender that is Veneer 02/18 M.G.
Sincerely,
Harsh
I am prepared to surrender forever.
I can only imagine it to be a beautiful surrender.
The battle is remembered in popular history by the words attributed to Chief Joseph at the formal surrender:
"Tell General Howard I know his heart. What he told me before, I have it in my heart. I am tired of fighting. Our chiefs are killed; Looking Glass is dead, Too-hul-hul-sote is dead. The old men are all dead. It is the young men who say yes or no. He who led on the young men is dead. It is cold, and we have no blankets; the little children are freezing to death. My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food. No one knows where they are—perhaps freezing to death. I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired; my heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever."
wow Ritch. Two different kinds of surrender. . . Yours so much more poetic!
Can't stop the rock.
Okay, the store has been updated:
