"A new volume showcasing objects of exceptional beauty and fascination. Most of the pieces featured here have, at one time or another, passed through the hands of American Indian art collector and dealer George Everett Shaw ... Crafted from a wealth of natural materials, all of these works - from clothing and personal accessories to ceremonial and hunting gear, from blankets and cradles to storage vessels and utensils - are illustrated in full color, and most have never before been published."--Jacket.
