The tradition of weaving textiles and rugs among the Navajo people
in the Southwest is glimpsed in its present form in this new
pictorial study. The regional styles long associated with Navajo
blankets and rugs continue to evolve today and the sections of this
book present the contemporary results through hundreds of beautiful
all photographs and text identifying many of the weavers. The new
styles of Burntwater, Wide Ruins, Ganado, Crystal, Chinle, Two Grey
Hills, Teec Nos Pos, Western Reservation and Shiprock area designs
show continuing talent among today's Navajo weavers. There is also
a section devoted to special purpose and fancy weavings including
saddle blankets, round, double and two-faced weaves and multiples
designs. One must conclude that the quality and diversity of Navajo
weavings is at a high level today.
