About this title

Review:

"The book's interpretation of folk art is as wide as its coverage, including the expected music, festivals, and stories, but also extending to foods and such unusual items as low-rider customized cars. Griffith's thorough but unstuffy approach to these populist expressions of culture and pride results in a highly readable record of indigenous ethnology."--Booklist"This book is an eminently readable catalog of fascinating information about colorful Arizona life-styles, that are at the same time familiar and exotic."--The Clarion"A delightful excursion into the present folk scene in and around Tucson."--Journal of the Southwest"Griffith conveys the rich cultural diversity of southern Arizona with deep respect, sensitivity, and genuine affection."--Books of the Southwest
