Reviews
The strength of the book lies in its attractive and well-curated photographs of various costumes and artifacts, and in its detailed descriptions of both the materials and the designs of shamanic paraphernalia and art. Anawalt is at her best with her visual choices, and her nuanced ability to bring the costumes to life through vivid description.

Synopsis
The striking accoutrements of shamanism give us a rare window into the deep past of humanity and an insight into one of the world's oldest religions. Shamanism goes back to the Ice Age. It spread with migrating ancient settlers around the remote lands of the north Pacific, where the practice survived into the early 20th century. Shamans communicated with the spirits, supplicating them for success in hunting, healing and divination, to help humans survive in the harsh northern lands. Clothing and regalia varied as cultures did, but always embodied the shaman's mystery and power. Without this paraphernalia, he - more rarely she - could neither establish authority among humans nor venture safely into the spirit world. Elaborate, heavy costumes featured rare and valuable elements of metal, ivory and wood. Fantastical masks, drums, amulets, staffs, fringed headdresses, coats and gloves were the tools, armour and weapons of the shaman, requiring a lifetime of training to wield. In these richly illustrated pages, Patricia Rieff Anawalt explores the diverse shamanic regalia and traditions of the lands of the Far North: Siberia; the Arctic and Alaska; and the Northwest Coast of British Colombia. These strange and often beautiful objects have inspired Western scholars, artists and sculptors, including the Surrealists, and the artifacts still speak to us today of humanity's multivalent connections to the natural world., The Northwest coast makes up one of the last regions on earth to be traversed by Western explorers. In this region an ensemble of related peoples created a large cultural universe derived from the cross-fertilization of ideas, oral traditions, and art. The shaman's cosmos was divided into three worlds, Lower, Middle and Upper, where the spirits ruled. With supernatural helpers, shamans sought to manipulate the environment, making use of regalia and objects that bequeath an acute sense of the animistic world that reflects the early interactions between man and nature. Structuring her account by the three geographical regions, Patricia Rieff Anawalt not only probes deeply into the significance and meaning of the shamanic practices, but also points up the intriguing differences in the ritual garb across the vast territories concerned as generation after generation sought to influence events through the aid of spirits., Structuring her account by the three geographical regions, Patricia Rieff Anawalt not only probes deeply into the significance and meaning of the shamanic practices, but also points up the intriguing differences in the ritual garb across the vast territories concerned as generation after generation sought to influence events through the aid of spirits.

One of my biggest pet peeves is buying something collectible or designed to be a high-end experience and then have it arrived dinged up from poor shipping packaging. This experience was the exact opposite! The book arrived packaged extremely well - bubble wrap, packing peanuts, and a box big enough for protection! The book arrived as described and was well-priced for its condition. I know my Dad will love it when I give it to him!The Complete Dick Tracy Volume 23 1966-67 Dailies & Sundays IDW 2017 HC 1st (N° 176484874667)
