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
