The Pueblo Children of the Earth Mother - Hardcover
2 Volumes in slipcase. Cloth over boards with sewn bindings. Over 1,000 pp; illustrations throughout.
The Pueblo Indians of Arizona and New Mexico have retained more of their traditional lifestyle than any other native peoples in North America. For generations, they and their ancestors, the Anasazi, have found peace with the spirits to which they entrust themselves, overcome incredible hardships, tilled the soil as part of a ritual of life, and created ingenious art and architecture. They provide a unique view into an unbroken history.
Thomas Mails recounts that history and culture in elegant prose with his exquisite drawings and paintings.
