A vivid doorway into a living tradition, this book opens with ceremonial radiance and a quiet, scholarly reverence. It invites readers to walk alongside Navajo artisans and to glimpse the artful drama of sand painting myths as they were once enacted and observed.This volume gathers ethnographic text that chronicles native american folklore with clarity and care, highlighting Navajo ceremonial rituals and the visual storytelling heritage embedded in sand paintings. The result is a compact, accessible account that resonates with both casual readers and classic-literature collectors, offering a thoughtful bridge between early twentieth century america and today’s libraries and study rooms. The narrative sits at the intersection of cultural practice and material artefact, inviting reflection on how myth and memory shape community identity and artistic endeavour.Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is restored for today’s and future generations. More than a reprint, it is a collector’s item and a cultural treasure-an enduring resource for scholars and collectors alike, and an educational resource for libraries seeking authentic insight into native american folklore collections and Navajo nation southwest heritage. This is a definitive, reverent artefact that honours its source while inviting new readers to explore the myths, rituals, and enduring imagery that have shaped a people and their storytelling for generations.
