Description
An original account of the history, legends, and ceremonialism of the Navaho and Pueblo Indians of the Southwest. Following a brief history of the two tribes through the centuries of conquest, the book turns inward to the meaning of Indian legends and rituals--Navaho sings, Pueblo dances, Zuni kachina ceremonies. Enduring still, these rituals and ceremonies express a view of life, of man's place in the creation, which is compared with Taoism and Buddhism--and with the aggressive individualism of the Western World.
