The collaboration between an architect and an anthropologist Native American Architecture presents the first book-length fully illustrated exploration of North American Indian architecture to appear in over a century. Peter Nabokov and Robert Easton together examine the building traditions of the major tribes in nine regional areas of the continent from the huge plank-house villages of the Northwest Coast to the moundbuilder towns and temples of the Southeast to the Navajo hogans and adobe pueblos of the Southwest. Going beyond a traditional survey of buildings the book offers a broad clear view into the Native American world revealing a new perspective on the interaction between their buildings and culture. Looking at Native American architecture as more than buildings villages and camps Nabokov and Easton also focus on their use of space their environment their social mores and their religious beliefs.Like New Condition: Used book that is in almost brand-new condition.
