The Ohlone Way: Indian Life in the San Francisco-Monterey Bay Area , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 382min
The culture of the Indian people who inhabited the Bay Area prior to the arrival of EuropeansTwo hundred years ago, herds of elk and antelope dotted the hills of the San Francisco-Monterey Bay area. Grizzly bears lumbered down to the creeks to fish for silver salmon and steelhead trout. From vast marshlands geese, ducks, and other birds rose in thick clouds “with a sound like that of a hurricane”. This land of “inexpressible fertility", as one early explorer described it, supported one of the densest Indian populations in all of North America.One of the most groundbreaking and highly acclaimed titles that Heyday has published, The Ohlone Way describes the culture of the Indian people who inhabited the Bay Area prior to the arrival of Europeans. Recently included in the San Francisco Chronicle’s “Top 100 Western Non-Fiction” list, The Ohlone Way has been described by critic Pat Holt as a “mini-classic”.Reviews“A beautiful book, written and illustrated with a genuine sympathy....A serious and compelling re-creation.” (The Pacific Sun)“Remarkable insight in to the lives of the Ohlone Indians.” (San Francisco Chronicle)“Margolin conveys the texture of daily life, birth, marriage, death, war, the arts, and rituals, and he also discusses the brief history of the Ohlones under the Spanish, Mexican, and American regimes...Margolin does not give way to romanticism or political harangues, and the illustrations have a gritty quality that is preferable to the dreamy, pretty pictures that too often accompany texts like this.” (Choice) ungekürzt.

Life is short, so explore a multitude of fascinating historical, biographical, scientific, political, and financial topics in only an hour each.San Francisco’s history precedes its name by several thousands of years. Though Europeans had settled in other parts of California much earlier, it wasn’t until 1769 that they stumbled upon the bay area. When the Spanish first arrived, they were floored by its natural beauty, which had been carefully maintained by its longtime residents, the Ohlone Indians. The Spanish began converting the natives and established a mission, the patron saint of which was St. Francis of Assisi, the city’s future namesake. The area changed rapidly over the subsequent centuries, as it shifted between governing powers and played host to several great booms in American history, yet retaining its beautiful landscape and charm to this day. ungekürzt.
