From October of 1998 through June of 2012, I wrote a monthly column for Contractor magazine (Chicago, IL) called "Craig On Project Management" which dealt with topics related to project management, personnel matters, scheduling, efficient asset utilizations, pre-construction, contract construction lifecycle, job post-completion strategies, estimating, safety, and other issues related to the mechanical (HVAC/ heating/ ventilation/ air conditioning/ plumbing/ piping/ high purity/ energy management/ LEED) contracting industry, along with the occasional featured article.
This book a collection of those timeless articles and is a valuable resource addition to any business library.

"An Indian Prayer" is my masterwork poem first published in 1980 and has subsequently appeared in various publications and anthologies all over the world.
This is a dramatic reading of it by me which also includes Native American flute and drum tracks which I composed and played.

Here are the words to "An Indian Prayer":
{ An Indian Prayer – H. Kent Craig – © 1980 }
My grandfather is the fire //
My grandmother is the wind //
The Earth is my mother //
The Great Spirit is my father //
The World stopped at my birth //
and laid itself at my feet //
And I shall swallow the Earth whole //
when I die //
and the Earth and I will be one //
Hail The Great Spirit, my father //
without him no one could exist //
because there would be no will to live //
Hail The Earth, my mother //
without which no food could be grown //
and so cause the will to live to starve //
Hail the wind, my grandmother //
for she brings loving, life-giving rain //
nourishing us as she nourishes our crops //
Hail the fire, my grandfather //
for the light, the warmth, the comfort he brings //
without which we would be animals, not men //
Hail my parents and grandparents //
without which not I //
nor you //
nor anyone else //
could have existed //
Life gives life //
which gives unto itself //
a promise of new life //
Hail The Great Spirit, The Earth, the wind, the fire //
praise my parents loudly //
for they are your parents, too //
Oh, Great Spirit, giver of my life //
please accept this humble offering of prayer //
this offering of praise //
this honest reverence of my love for you \\
