1 comments about Navajo Pictorial Weaving, 1880-1950.
- This book is more than just great pictures-of which there are many.It provides an excellent history lesson on the introduction of figural elements in Navajo weaving, including the stories behind the popular Yei, Yeibichais and sandpainting weavings. There are 170 full-color examples of weavings that illustrate this book, comprising one of the most difinitive surveys of pictorial weavings. The book is boken out into nine sections, such as "Birds, Flora, Fauna", and gives an imformative look at each style's evolution. The authors also reviews the impact Western civilization has had on weaving styles, including the introduction of trains, cars and buidlings. It has helped me date rugs in my own collection as well as those I've considered purchasing. It really is a "must buy" for rug enthusiasts.

2 comments about Art of the Basket: Traditional Basketry from Around the World.
- Any basket maker or collector will enjoy and appreciate this book, and frankly their library will not be complete without it. Colorful and just packed with photographs, graphically stimulating and full of information about baskets and basket making around the world. I cherish my copy, and find it has inspired me to look again at the "average" and "use" baskets in my home - not just those in my collection. A worthy gift!
- Not only is this a wonderful book for the coffee table it is detailed in materials, techniques, and decorations of baskets from around the world. Easilly identifiable photos of baskets as well as great photos of the weavers. Recommend this book to anyone interested in weaving, baskets, and ethnic handicrafts.

1 comments about Handmade Baskets.
- I have had this book for a few years and I still refer to it for patterns, ideas, tips on techniques and as a reference guide for teaching. It is one of the two books, by Lyn Siler, that I recommend to all of my students. The best basket weaving book available.
