Abstract

Native Americans is a lavishly illustrated, attractive "coffee table" book intended for the general reader, and such volumes are significant because they reach wide audiences who frequently learn about complex and important topics from such general works. In Native Americans Trenton and Houlihan essay the imagery of the Native American in European and Euro-American art. They utilize an "integrated" anthropological and art-historical critique" (p. 7), and they use the concept of "cultural areas" to organize their text.
