Masked Gods is a vast book, a challenging and profoundly original account of the history, legends, and ceremonialism of the Navajo and Pueblo Indians of the Southwest. After a brief but vivid history of the two peoples through the centuries of conquest, the book turns inward to the meaning of Indian legends and rituals--Navajo sings, Pueblo dances, Zuni kachina ceremonies. Enduring still, these rituals and ceremonies express a view of life, of man's place in the creation, which is compared with Taoism and Buddhism-- and with the aggresive individualism of the Western world.
