Th akar about his personal connection to the collection he has assembled over three
decades, this title can also describe the collection itself—which is alive with color, history,
and signifi cance. Th is is an impressive, scholarly text but also a visual feast. Th e incredible

amazing, given the age of the artifacts. Both historically signifi cant and artistically inspiring,
this is the sort of book any textile artist or enthusiast should have in their library, both as a
valuable reference tool as well as a source of beauty.
