If you would like to understand the origin, customs, creation and use of Hopi Kachinas, this book will help.

Barton Wright has produced another masterpiece, translating his excellent understanding of the Hopi Kachina culture into an easy-to-digest and very interesting narrative.

The photos and illustrations make the many Kachinas more readily recognizable, the research done makes this book a great gift or addition to collection.

  A great way to learn about the Hopi Kachinas.
Review created: 06/02/09

I live in a Native American area and wanted to learn more about the culture. Barton Wright is an authority recognized by the local tribe.

The book is excellent and gives much background about the Kachinas and helps you understand how the fit into the tribal ceremonies.

The book at any price is worth the money and knowledge it affords!

A nice little book for those who are interested in collecting kachinum. Not a good book if you are looking for cosmological answers about the kachina & the culture surrounding them.
