Customer Reviews

Excellent Resource!

The author gives historical information, info on gathering materials, as well as detailed instructions with excellent photographs, on Indian basket weaving from several tribes. From some of her comments about the weavers and their attitudes, I suspect she knows them personally or at least did her research very well! Excellent documentation and bibliography. You can even learn some Indian words! I highly recommend this book and want to add it to my library!
