520    "The craftsmanship of native North American peoples is now
       regarded as art of a high order, yet not until the early 
       twentieth century did it become the subject of aesthetic 
       discussion. The varied and vital forms of Indian artifacts
       --from the totem poles of the Northwest Coast to the rock 
       engravings of the Anasazi--create an extraordinary record 
       of native traditions and their subtle interactions with 
       European influence. Classifying surviving works by 
       material and technique, the author covers a huge field--a 
       thousand tribes and about 200 languages. The works 
       described and illustrated range from an Arapaho Ghost 
       Dance dress to Buffalo Meat's self-portrait, from Seminole
       applique work of the 1890s to a Tlingit spoon carved from 
       mountain goat horn; all of them works of art that testify 
       to a vast field of human achievement."--Publisher's 
       description.
