Weaving Alliances with Other Women: Chitimacha Indian Work in the New South - Mercer University Lamar Memorial Lectures
Daniel H. Usner
River-cane baskets woven by the Chitimachas of south Louisiana are universally admired for their beauty and workmanship. Recounting friendships that Chitimacha weaver Christine Paul (1874-1946) sustained with two non-Native women at different parts of her life, this book offers a rare vantage point into the lives of American Indians in the segregated South.
