Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Poor. 1st Edition. Navaho Trading Days by Elizabeth Compton Hegemann, a remarkable narrative with 318 rare photographs - hardcover in dustjacket. Published by University Of New Mexico Press, 1963. In the 1920s and 1930s, Elizabeth Compton Hegemann traveled and worked as an Indian trader in remote areas of Arizona. She entertained numerous celebrities in spite of the necessity of bringing supplies from Flagstaff, a drive of several hours over mostly nonexistent dirt roads. She collected rare southwestern books, learned the Navaho language, how to spin and weave, and the intricacies of trade in wool, blankets, and pinon nuts. Her record of these years, especially the 318 photographs presented in this volume, provides a firsthand glimpse of Navaho and Hopi life in the years between World Wars I and II.

Blessed with great curiosity and a remarkable memory, in the 20s and 30s she focused camera and notebook on almost everything that came her way. She did not guess how priceless this information would become with the passing of time and consequent great changes in then-remote northeastern Arizona. For this book 318 of Mrs. Hegemann's photographs have been chosen which provide an unvarnished record of people and places, Indians and white men, ceremonial dances, trading posts, roads and archaeological monuments, all of them now altered by time. Each photograph, reproduced without retouching, is identified with an informative caption and a date. In addition, Mrs. Hegemann has supplied one hundred sixty pages of informal text, recounting her unusual experiences as a Navahopi country traveler, resident, and Indian trader at Shonto in the almost inaccessible northeastern Navaho Reservation. She was in a position to encounter most of the important visitors attracted to the area, among them John Galsworthy, Charles F. Lummis, William Randolph Hearst and Will Rogers. Despite primitive conditions, she maintained many of the amenities of civilization, including the acquisition of a collection of rare Southwestern books. She learned the Navaho language, the intricacies of trade in wool, blankets, and piñon nuts, and even how to spin and weave. Yet she undertook hardships and welcomed danger. For many years she was one of the few white women in an area where traders kept a gun and a billy-club handy. To obtain supplies at Flagstaff, she regularly drove a truck, alone, across scores of miles of nearly non-existent road. From the photographs, their captions, and the author's intimate, often humorous, narrative, the reader will emerge with a fully rounded picture of life as it was lived in NAVAHO TRADING DAYS. XX ELIZABETH COMPTON HEGEMANN was born in 1897 near Cincinnati, where she attended preparatory schools, afterwards studying at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston. Aside from extended trips abroad, she spent most of her life in Southern California, Arizona and New Mexico. A determined collector of American Indian and Spanish Colonial crafts, the fruits of her discriminating taste and careful records are owned by several museums. Always an ardent camera user, she studied professional photography late in life, and devoted much of her energy during a fatal illness to writing the text and preparing fresh negatives and prints from her earlier photographs for use in this book. Hegemann, Elizabeth (illustrator).…

The Southwest Museum Leaflets were a series of 43 booklets written by archaeologists for the Southwest Museum in Los Angeles, California, during the 1930s through the early 1960s. The leaflets were designed to provide the public with information about the cultures of the Southwest, and they covered a wide range of topics, including archaeology, anthropology, history, and art. The leaflets were written by some of the leading experts in the field of Southwest studies, including Charles Amsden, Ruth DeEtte Simpson, Frances E. Watkins, M. R. Harrington and Edwin E. Walker. The leaflets were illustrated with photographs and drawings, and they were often accompanied by maps and charts.

The leaflets were discontinued in the 1960s, but they remain an important resource for scholars and researchers. …
