California Indian Baskets is lavishly illustrated in full color with rare baskets from the magnificent collections of the University of California, Harvard University, Smithsonian Institution, The British Museum, Madrid's Museo de America, Royal Museum of Scotland, Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History, Southwest Museum and many other world-class museums and private collections. The vast majority of these rare baskets have never appeared in print before. Made possible in part through the support and vision of three California Indian tribes, this remarkable book is the result of decades of research by noted basketry scholar Ralph Shanks. Expertly researched and well written, California Indian Baskets honors the achievements of the First Californians. The book illuminates Native American art, history, technology, population movements, cultural interactions, and native plant uses. The book demonstrates basketry studies can rank with archeology, linguistics and DNA research in understanding and appreciating Native American culture and history. This is especially true in California where baskets were central to daily life. It was through basketry that the most populous and linguistically diverse Native American population in the United States was able to create a highly productive economy and vibrant cultural life with no agriculture and very limited use of pottery. Native California was not "pre-agricultural," but rather a land where basketry was combined with native plant resources so successfully that agriculture was not needed.

This richly illustrated photographic overview captures the beauty and artistry of the remarkable world-class, Native American Indian baskets of California, circa 1895 to 1940, known as the Florescence or Flowering. It is a tribute to these artisans and includes biographical snapshots of weavers and portraits of their masterpiece California Indian baskets, which today exist in museums and private collections throughout the United States. Collecting highly complex and artistic Native American baskets became a successful tourist business in the late 19th and early 20th century -- tourism in the United States exploded as a result of the expansion of the railway system to hitherto relatively inaccessible locations. This new business benefitted both collectors of this art form and the weavers who created them. The transition from woven baskets used for utilitarian use to more durable and less expensive metal cookware and storage vessels allowed weavers the time needed to innovate and create baskets specifically catering to tourist interests. During this period of Florescence, some of the world's most intricate, beautiful, and artistic baskets were woven, particularly by highly-talented weavers representing several Native American tribes located throughout California.

Luiseño Indians are indigenous to the Southern California coastal plains of northern San Diego and western Riverside counties, where they are recognized by the US Bureau of Indian Affairs as Mission Indians. They are also recognized by Indians and Non-Indians alike as weavers of some of the finest baskets, perhaps in the entire world.In August, 2004 the US Postal Service issued a commemorative stamp pane of which one stamp features the image of a basket from the Riverside Municipal Museums extensive collection. To celebrate that event, the Museum mounted an exhibit featuring most of the Luiseño baskets in the Museums collection. That exhibit expanded on a program initiated by the late Dr. Christopher Moser who, over a 23 year period mounted approximately ten exhibits of Western US Indian baskets. Those exhibits made available to the public almost every one of the museums nearly 3,000 Indian baskets, an unheard of feat in museum circles. Not only did Chris almost single handedly mount the many exhibits, he also authored and published four major catalogues on those exhibits, which, over the last 20 years, evolved into the most authoritative documents ever written on Southern California Indian baskets. This author was privileged to have worked with Dr. Moser on two of those titles. It was therefore an honor to be asked by Dr. H. Vincent Moses, the Riverside Municipal Museum Director, to prepare this catalogue. It is an even greater honor to be able to dedicate this catalogue to Chris whom the author held in such high esteem.
