I am fascinated by totem poles, and I do want to create one (some day). If you just want information on totem poles and NW art forms, this explains the tribes histories, traditional shapes, use of colors, story telling aspects, symbolism, LOTS of cool stuff. If you, like me, want practical advice on design and carving and such, this is an AMAZING find! There color photos and detailed drawings on every page. Very cool book! This primitive art is very sophisticated and elegant.
ACTUALLY I LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. IT HAS GOOD TEXT LEADING YOU THROUGH THE STEPS IN CARVING A TOTEM POLE AND EXCELLENT COLOR PHOTOGRAPHS TO SUPPORT THE TEXT. IT IS A COLORFUL AND INTERESTING BOOK AND HAS TAKEN AWAY MOST OF THE TREPIDATION I HAD ABOUT TRYING ONE OF THESE PROJECTS. I AM GLAD I FOUND THIS BOOK.
