Paperbound. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Description: Several black and white photo illustrations. From the publisher's preface: ''The Indians of the Death Valley region have never caught the public fancy, nor have their craft products attracted the attention of collectors. Yet the native culture is not without interest, for it demonstrates how a people could survive, and successfully, in a harsh and difficult desert setting. To recreate the aboriginal manner of living, it was necessary to draw upon a variety of sources ranging from chance observations of early travelers, military men, and prospectors to the fuller accounts of ethnographers of more recent times. Regrettably, the source materials remain silent on some details of native life.'' Topics covered include: food, shelter and dress, handicrafts, family and community, religion and magic, life cycle, amusements, art and music, literature, perspective.
