The Pueblo Indians of Arizona and New Mexico have retained more of their traditional lifestyle than any other native peoples in North America. For generations, they and their ancestors, the Anasazi, have found peace with the spirits to which they entrust themselves, overcome incredible hardships, tilled the soil as part of a ritual of life, and created ingenious art and architecture. They provide a unique view into an unbroken history. In this first of a two-book chronicle, Thomas Mails recounts that history in elegant prose and exquisite drawings and paintings.
