No two American Indian baskets are alike. They are handmade of raw materials and are as unique as the individual who created them, reflective of the environment. Handwoven baskets provide a guide into the culture, tribe, place, time, and identity of the basketmaker. The authors bring together almost 800 photographs, descriptions, and information on American Indian baskets and basketmaking, with the goal of helping the reader build their own collection. The book serves as a guide to the nine regions in North America that share similarities in basketry. Organization is in three sections: an introduction and guide to basketmaking and collecting; selected baskets by region (Southwest, Great Basin, California, Plateau, Northwest Coast, Arctic and Subarctic, Plains, Southeast, and Northeast); and cautions to the the reader and collector about collecting Native art and avoiding inauthentic American Indian baskets.
