Hecht (a specialist in Guatemalan textiles who teaches adult education courses in textiles in the UK) provides an introduction describing the different kinds of costumes their materials and weaving techniques. A bibliography glossary and index are included. Annotation c. Book News Inc. Portland OR (booknews.com)
