Paperback. Zustand: Good. Bill Reid, master artist, goldsmith, carver, writer, and spokesman, has been widely acclaimed as the pivotal force in the rediscovery and reflowering of the great art traditions of the Natives of the Northwest Coast.

In this artistic biography, Karen Duffek gives an account of Bill Reid's life and work and of his role as artist, innovator, and ambassador of Haida art.

Specialists, collectors, and lay readers with an interest in Northwest Coast Native art or in Reid's work in particular will welcome this insightful critical biography published in association with a Reid exhibit at the University of British Columbia's Museum of Anthropology. …
