Stories, prayers, and revelations told in a first-person narrative by "Sam Woods," a spiritual healer in a distinctly American vein--a marriage of folk, Native American, spiritual and contemporary urban fictional styles.

This unusual and eloquent book of captivating tales is based on the author's extraordinary adventure in discovering the healing spirit. Presenting stories, prayers, and revelations gathered into a first-person narrative by "Sam Woods," a spiritual healer in a distinctly American vein, Sam Woods heals without adhering to any formal doctrine, sectarian "affliation," or metaphysical system; only caring, intuition, insight, selflessness and love. American Healing presents a fascinating world of healing stories, personal discoveries through healing, explorations of attitudes towards and about healing, and finally - through sheer literary craftsmanship and the inspiration of Sam Woods himself - a book that brings healing as it teaches.
