Foreword by Marlene Sekaquaptewa. "In 1927 a New England family of five embarked upon a remarkable nine-month journey across America by automobile. Along the way, Maud Melville kept a journal and her husband, Carey, took dozens of photographs. The Melvilles also formed lasting friendships with several people they met on the Hopi mesas of Arizona, and Maud began a long exchange of letters and gifts with Ethel Muchvo, a Hopi potter, and her family. This book tells, in part, the story of that friendship." ---- from the rear cover promotional blurb. As new, unread copy without dust jacket, as issued.
