Lots of photos, line drawings, sketches of objects and sacred places.

Bulk of text is engaging retelling of the main myths.

Book divided into six sections: The Indian World, Earthdivers and Creators, The Spiritual Cosmos, Keepers of Order, Web of Ceremony, Native American Legacy. ( )

Almost as much space is devoted to the photos and other illustrations as to the text and I spent nearly as much time poring over them as reading. This book would make a great introduction to North American Indian myth and religion just because of the great illustrations. The text organization leads to a bit of repetition but not enough to bother me and I really enjoyed this beautiful volume. While much of the material had been covered in other reading I've done over the last two years, I still learned new things from both the authors and the choice of pictures and would recommend the book, especially for those unfamiliar with Indian lore and customs.
