Salish Weaving
131 pages. Glossary, bibliography, index. "Probes meticulously into the history and prehistory of Salish weaving and documents its recent revival. Known historical styles are discussed and compared, and the book includes a catalogue of all traditional Salish weavings known to exist in museum collections throughout the world. More than 100 black and white photographs and several colour plates exhibit these traditional weavings, the processes by which they were made, and the methods by which the art has been revived. Many helpful line drawings clarify technical questions, illustrating processes, artifacts and design distinctions... For the scholar and the layman, the student of the arts and the practising weaver, the interested browser and the serious collector, this is the book in its field." - from dust jacket.
