Editorial Reviews

Review

"Western Apache Material Culture is a collection of essays specifically about the Guenther and Goodwin Western Apache ethnographic collections at the Arizona State Museum, and about Western Apache culture. . . . This is an important book and will become the standard reference on Western Apache material culture." —American Indian Quarterly "This book will surely appeal not only to those who are interested in the Apache, material culture studies, or the potential of Native American museum resources as cultural and historical documents, but also to those who are concerned with the way humans adapted to the environment and thus 'utilized their world so well.'" —African Arts "It is a remarkably beautiful and detailed catalog of the Goodwin and Guenther collections of Wester Apache artiffacts in the Arizona State Musuem—and a lot more! . . . A section of thirty-two color photographs by award-winning photographer Helga Teiwes is the delectable frosting on this rich and satisfying cake." —Journal of Arizona History

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Have, December 28, 2006
This review is from: Western Apache Material Culture: The Goodwin and Guenther Collections (Paperback)
This book doesn't have page after page of pictures on cultural material. Some people may think this a fault. However, it does show many items that aren't often seen and covers the gamut of the material discussed. And these are photographs of the real deal - not line drawings. The gem in this book is the text because there is information not found elsewhere. People totally immersed in Apache life had the interest to document cultural material at a critical time. The documentation of the collection discussed was so well done, it ensures accuracy of the nature of the material it covers. If a person wants a more advanced book on Western Apache culture - this is a good one. It is also one of the only books that seperates Western Apache from the others. This book also contains literature citations that support the statements and that provide further research opportunity. This book is a must-have.
