About this title

Synopsis:

A dynamic photographic documentation of the traditional folk artists and craftsmen of Okinawa--traditions that survived the ravages of war and occupation but not the changing interests of the young. The text provides a concise introduction to Okinawan culture and history which demonstrates not only the tragedy of Okinawa's past but also its rare achievement in the field of folkcrafts. Silk-bound hardcover in dust jacket. Photographs by Tsume Sugimura; Text by Hisao Suzuki. 236 pages with tissue-guards separating the photo sections; 108 pages of gravure-printed b&w photos and 40 pages of color photos; 8.5 x 12 inches.
