This volume is one of a series of publications on the history and ecology of New Mexico and adjacent areas published by the Fort Burgwin Research Center Inc., a non-profit foundation created by the late Ralph M. Rounds for scientific and educational purposes. Taos Adobes is the result of studies conducted at the request of the Research Center during the summers of 196o and 1961 by Dr. Bainbridge Bunting, Associate Professor of Art at the University of New Mexico. The purpose of this still continuing project was to record, through photographic coverage and detailed architectural drawings, several of the delightfully picturesque old adobe buildings in the Taos area. Although these houses are a unique heritage of New Mexico, many of them are in advanced stages of decay and ruin. Indeed, several of the buildings described in this book have recently been destroyed.

Long before the first Europeans appeared in the American Southwest, ancestors of today's Pueblo Indians were spinning and weaving cotton for their everyday garments and ceremonial costumes. Much has been written about the arts of American Indians in recent years, yet the living tradition of Pueblo weaving has gone almost completely ignored. PUEBLO WEAVING AND TEXTILE ARTS is the first book devoted entirely to the complete range of this special tradition. And what a tradition it is! Weaving, braiding, brocading, embroidery, and the creation of a brilliant array of garments--from kilts to blankets, belts, mantas, leggings, and more--are all included in the Pueblo textile repertoire. It was the Pueblo who first taught the Navajo how to weave their famous blankets and rugs, lending them both their loom and their basic techniques. PUEBLO WEAVING AND TEXTILE ARTS covers the craft completely. History, technique, description of looms, articles of woven, designs, and the state of the art today are described in detail. There is also a glossary of weaving terms, a chart of Pueblo weaving's evolution through the centuries, lists of prize-winning Pueblo weavers, and a stunning eight-page section in full color.
