When this work was published, in the first year of the 20th century, it dazzled ethnologists with the comprehensivness of the text and the plethora of illustrations of the artifacts of the Huichol--a people about whom little had been previously published. Still considered a bedrock reference work on Huichol ethnolgraphy, this volume remains one of the two or three major studies of Huichol ethnology and material culture.
