Based on over twenty years' research at Zuni Pueblo in New Mexico, this honest and respectful book takes us into the heart of one Zuni family and allows us to witness the world through its members' eyes. We see the joys of love, marriage, and childbirth and the tragedies of illness, alcoholism, and death. We rediscover the South-western landscape, its plants and wildlife, in light of traditional Zuni teachings. 'The Beautiful and the Dangerous' was originally published in 1992
