Interesting, first class reference book.
This book is one of the best I've seen on the subject of kachina dolls and their carvers. A great reference as well as a strong introduction to the art.

Basic introduction to Hopi kachina dolls,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Hopi Approach to the Art of Kachina Doll Carving (Paperback)
Author Erik Bromberg provides the reader with a good, basic introduction to the art of kachina doll carving. The photography of Michael Mouchette is simple in style and foremat ... place the doll in front of a gray or brown background and shoot. Price is what makes this book most appealing. It's publication date of 1986, however, leaves the reader without a TRUE picture of the advances made in this art form over the past decade. Pick up a copy of this book; it's worth the initial investment. Then take an additional step ... compare it to a book from the mid 90's ... you'll SEE the difference!
