I haven't read this. Anybody seen it?
Amazon The book provides an extensive review of the vibrant clothing, hairstyles and accoutrements of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois). Wendat (Huron) and other Iroquoian speaking peoples of the northeast woodlands of North America during the 17th and 18th centuries. Dress and how one appeared was important to Iroquoians and displayed an individual’s belonging to a community, her or his relationships to clan, and the spiritual and natural world around them. Descriptions record changes in materials and fashion as Iroquoians met, adapted and evolved in the face of contact with Europeans, maintaining their cultural identity and values throughout the period and beyond into the present day.
