Seattle: 1995. 223 pages, 180 large photographs, 2 maps. Cloth ed. Item #5161

In the mid-1930s, the author, then a very young ethnographer, journeyed into the Brazilian interior to document the cultural habits of tribal groups that were still quite isolated. The result was this beautiful, rare visual record of funeral rites, contests, face paintings, and traditional rituals and customs.
