First edition. During Erna Gunther's career, she was instrumental in opening the eyes of both the public and the scholarly community to the importance of Northwest Coast Indian culture. Following the lead of Boas, her scholarship insisted on understanding Native American culture on its own terms by drawing on ethnography, history and archaeology. The exhibit she assembled at the 1939 San Francisco International Exposition introduced Northwest Indian art to the general public, and sparked a revival of interest in the region's great woodcarvers. Her arrangement of Indian art for the 1962 World's Fair in Seattle was wildly popular and earned her tremendous praise. She was a passionate supporter of Native American civil rights, and in the 1950s participated in the founding of the Congress of American Indians.
