Description
"This book does a lovely job of showing the range of variability in rock art in the Cosos and the setting for that rock art. The minimal text keeps the attention on the imagery and photos. One can take great pleasure in simply looking at the rock art." -Amy Gilreath, Far Western Anthropological Research Group, Inc. "This is a very personal take on the enigmatic rock art of the Coso Range. It's a book built around images-spectacular pictures of some very sophisticated petroglyphs. The images tell the story." -David Hurst Thomas, Department of Anthropology, American Museum of Natural History "A visual delight. . . . Goldsmith supplements these photos with a narrative that is both personal and well informed. . . . The book will delight everyone with an interest in Native American rock art."-American Archaeology
