The rich traditions of Great Basin--expecially Nevadan--basketmakers appears to be alive and well, as contemporary basktmakers (Washoe, Western Shoshone) create baskets in the manner of their ancestors using traditional techniques and forms. The stories of nineteen basketmakers--and their baskets--are engrossingly presented in this work that documents both the contemporary and ancestral basketry of the Great Basin peoples.
