Lois Sherr Dubin's glorious survey presents a sweeping panorama of the artistry of indigenous American peoples from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans, from Canada to northern Mexico. For more than 10 years, Dubin conducted extensive research, photographed spectacular artifacts, and interviewed tribal elders and Native American artists. The result, a richly informative work—filled with hundreds of beautiful and distinctive objects—has become the standard reference for those interested in jewelry, art, anthropology, and especially, Native American culture and oral history.
