Title: Faces from the Land: Twenty Years of Powwow Tradition
Author(s): Ben and Linda Marra
Genre: non-fiction
Composed of full-page and half-page color photos of various modern Native Americans dressed in traditional Native American powwow costumes. I never knew that powwow costumes were so colorful! The tribes represented are mostly from the American and Canadian Plains and western part of the continent. The photos were taken over a time span of 20 years but look timeless and elegant due to consistency in background and lighting.
