Tales of Wonder: Adventures Chasing the Divine, an Autobiography

A spiritual quest that is truly an adventure

Huston Smith shares his spiritual journey in these pages, and what a journey it is. Always grounded in his Christian faith, Smith also practices Hinduism, Buddhism and Islam. His life and teaching intertwine and we are privileged to get a glimpse into the broad mind and deep heart of this remarkable person. If you have read other books by Smith, this one will give you deeper insight into the person behind and within those books. If you have not, this would be a wonderful introduction.

Tales of Wonder

This autobiography of Huston Smith truly tells his "adventures chasing the divine." Not only does the reader get a good understanding of the world religions that Huston immersed himself in, but also the joys and sorrows of a life fully lived. It offers direction for those beginning young adulthood, inspiration for all those living into their tenth decade, and hope for those on the path in between.

A Great Book For The Open Minded

This is a great book. After reading three of his other books, he does tend to repeat himself here and there. I expected this book to be full of emotion, and it wasn't. It was very "matter of fact: this is my life-no judgements". Which, only shows that he actually follows what he teaches. The basics of every religion.
