Richard L. Gibson, a veteran officer who served a tour of duty in the U. S. Army, a year in the National Guard as a military police officer, and 26 years in California law enforcement before retiring with his wife to Montana, where he enjoys fly fishing and currently works as a city court judge, has completed his new audiobook “Healing the Circle”: a stirring novel inspired by his lifelong love and respect of Native American art, stories, and people. 

Author Richard L. Gibson begins his book, writing, “In the days before European people moved to North America, the continent was known to the native people as Turtle Island. It is said the first people came to be on the continent soon after the last Ice Age, when a bridge of land known as the Bering Strait was still above the seas. It was located between what are known as the Asian continent and the North American continent. Ask a native person and they would tell a different story. They would tell of their origin story and how the people have been on the continent from the beginning of the world. In this time before, the people who would come to be known as the Native Americans lived in close relationship with the animals, the forests, the mountains, and the plains. They lived within a rhythm nourished by the earth herself. The European people disturbed this harmony when they began their colonization.”

“Healing the Circle”

  • Richard L. Gibson (Author), Robert King (Narrator), Audiobook Network (Publisher)

At long last, the Earth had had enough. Enough pollution. Enough mistreatment and draining of her resources. Finally, the Earth mother rebelled with devastation, disease, fire, earthquakes, and other natural disasters that brought the civilized world to its knees. For untold generations the native people of the continent called North America told stories of the broken circle of the natural world. They warned of the consequences of trespass, misuse, and mistreatment of the mother of us all. They also told stories of the healing of this world. They told of the return of the buffalo and the buffalo people.

This is the story of how that healing came to pass. The story of the beginning of the fourth age of the world and how the people came to once again begin a walk down the red road, the sacred path. This is a story of how these people began to walk the path of true human beings once more.
