5.0 out of 5 stars
A valuable resource,
By
This review is from: Treasures of the Hopi (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book, full of valuable information about most of the Hopi arts and crafts--pottery, kachinas, jewelry, and the like. Full of great photos, this is a great reference for collectors, scholars or just folks that are interested in Native American arts. My only wish is that she would write a new edition, featuring artists who are more current.
