Notes: The North/South/East/West of the title refers to the four Indian tribes featured in the text–the Hopi of the Southwest, the Tlingit of the Northwest, the Lakota of the Plains, and the Iroquois of the Northeast (freely adapting those compass directions here, eh?).  The objects each tribe made and how they relate to the world around them–dolls, masks, baskets, pipes, blankets, sandpaintings (a little Navajo thrown in), tools, pottery, jewelry.  Not an exhibit catalog, more a collection of photographs of the collection of the Carnegie Museum related to the four tribes.
