"The armchair traveler will be amazed at the variety of designs. . . . An excellent choice for ethnic textile collections." — Library Journal
A richly illustrated, bilingual book, this guide visits twenty villages in the Chiapas Highlands to showcase their stunning handwoven cloth while also providing an insider's look into their history, folklore, festivals, traditions, and daily lives.
Ritual transvestites, Virgin statues draped with native blouses, tunics designed to look like howler monkey fur, and elaborately floral shawls and ponchos—these are just a few of the unforgettable images captured in the book. Also included are a pull-out map of the Chiapas Highlands and dates of special festivals and local markets.
