I heard Chief Peter John speak when i was in Alaska -- to a "potlatch" in the prison (Fairbanks Correctional Center) People came thousands of miles to meet with him (he was "Traditional First Chief", region-wide, of the Athabascan Indians and still lived in his village). The book is extraordinarily genuine, his personal account of life with God, at least one vision granted him -- the story of his moose-hunting trip, complaining to the Holy Spirit about the non-fulfillment of the prophecy of food when his family was on the edge of starvation -- and IMMEDIATE answer! -- that story is worth the price of the book.
