This colorful book combines manufacturing techniques, raw materials, forms, and decoration with information on native lifestyles.

Hundreds of baskets were photographed for this volume in color and in black-and-white. Many are from the famous and unparalleled collection of the Peabody Museum of Harvard University where the authors began their basketry research in the 1970s.
