"Lavishly illustrated and passionately written, this work situates Haida art where it has always belonged, inseparable from its people and at the very apex of the great accomplishments of human creativity. Features 140 colour photos of Haida masterpieces from the last two centuries, from exquisitely carved totem poles and masks to remarkable pipes, plates and baskets. The wide-ranging text includes excerpts from ancient Raven myths." - from dust jacket. Appears unread. Clean, bright and unmarked with faintest hint of wear. Dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A superb copy. Gift quality Book
