Here, in this beautiful introduction to the symbolic thought and art of an often heroic struggle for survival, are illustrated and explained the principal icons and ceremonies of the major native peoples--from the smoking of the Sacred Pipe of the Plains Lakota to the intricate design and geometry of Navajo weaving. 80 illustrations, 40 in color.
