When clay sings
(Book)

"Designs from this book are all dervied from prehistoric Indian pottery from the American Southwest. The original work was done by ancient potters of the Anasazi, Mogollon, Hohokam and Mimbres cultures."--Page [32].

The daily life and customs of prehistoric southwest Indian tribes are retraced from the designs on the remains of their pottery. A lyrical consideration of the lives and thoughts of an ancient people whose pottery can still be found in the desert of the American Southwest. "Bahti has filled the pages with evocative pen-and-ink line drawings representing the primitive figures and designs on the pottery ... The striking effect of the illustrations is matched by Baylor's word images . . ". - School Library Journal.
