What is Masked gods : Navaho and Pueblo ceremonialism about?

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. Following a brief but vivid history of the two tribes through the centuries of conquest, the book turns inward to the meaning of Native American legends and ritualNavajo songs, Pueblo dances, Zuni kachina ceremonies. Enduring still, these rituals and ceremonies express a view of life, of mans place in the creation, which is compared with Taoism and Buddhismand with the aggressive individualism of the Western world.
