Black-and-white photos of sculpture, paintings, prints, jewelry and textiles illustrate a timeline of American Indian history that stretches from the "Dawn of America" (c.35,000-15,000 B.C) to the end of the 1970's. The images of American Indian art combine with dated short prose entries to create an eccentric and thought-provoking tribute to the creativity and cultural heritage of American Indian tribes and cultures over time.
