Beschreibung

"The well-known exponent of native American art, Acee Blue Eagle, says of this book: In PAGANS PRAYING, Roy A. Keech has caught the spirit of the American Indian as few writers have succeeded in doing. With reverence & with word beauty, he describes the ceremonials, the rituals and rhythm so dominant in the life of the Indian. He has captures what many others have failed to comprehend, the repetition which is characteristic of the Indian's songs, his dances, rituals, art, jewelry, weaving, beadwork, pottery, & speech. He has translated into words the majestic monotony of that repetition." This book has 95 pages and is illustrated throughout. The title page has a hand-tinted picture representing an eagle. The book is a SIGNED copy from the author, Roy A. Keech. The dust jacket has numerous tears, to both the front anf rear. The rear cover of the bust jacket has a portion missing from the upper right extremities. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 022303
