 Smashing! May 7, 1999
This is truly a smashing book, filled with such vision. Cambells five straight years using his reading technique served him right. The content and expressions are so alive. I would reccomend this to anyone.
 Buffalo Legends and Ecstatic Dances March 27, 1998

Why would you want to buy just one cassette for about $8.00, when you can buy all six tapes for approximately $24.00? But for those who prefer this program to the others, I guess you save some money. "The First Storytellers" conversation explores accepting death as rebirth using the Indian buffalo myth and the Christian story of Christ; the rite of passages in primitive societies; the role of Shamans; and the decline of ritual in modern times. The Indian Buffalo myth is a wonderful metaphor of rebirth, but also highlights the reverence the Indian felt toward the animal. Animal and Human relationships are discussed at the start of the program; it begins with the hunt. The ritual and Shaman conversations are powerful, short pieces. There is a feeling that Campbell (or maybe the listener) needed about 5 minutes more on each topic. Campbell is fluid though; so everything fits and follows. From a business perspective, this tape may be useful for those interested in organizational transformations and cultures; it provides a classic framework. I can't imagine anyone studying either organizational concept without a bit of Campbell background.
