their new book "Learning by Designing, Pacific Northwest Coast Native
Indian Art." This book has been advertised in the publication "Native
People's Magazine (Arts and Lifeways)" and has been extremely well
received in USA as well as Canada.

It was just featured in the BC Provincial Museum in Victoria BC Canada
