Customer Reviews

Good overview of period

General info Still pretty good read though for those interested in Pueblo Indians

Pueblo culture explained

Best book for understanding Pueblo culture. Not just for anthropologists, good general read.

Full of Information

This book is packed with information about the history of New Mexico (the real history), and about the different ethnic groups, and the various pueblos. Dozier also wrote a similarly good book about Hano, the non-Hopi pueblo on the Hopi reservation. Warning: These books challenge some of the commonly held views about Hispanic and Indian culture and origins in the Southwest. Dozier was a Santa Clara Indian, and a professor of anthropology and related subjects at several universities in the US. Much of the information he gives is from firsthand research and experience. Given his background, he writes from a highly unbiased viewpoint. To be fair, his research is from the fifties and sixties, and so with respect to the situation today may be a little out of date. Still - highly recommended.
