It's very exciting to have this glimpse of the long-awaited book on the Blackfoot Shirts Project! The publishers, Athabasca University Press in Canada, have done justice to the beauty of the shirts with the cover design. Now we are looking forward to seeing the proofs of the book in a few months! The book is very multivocal, with lots of sidebars, quotes, essays by project participants, and photographs telling the story of the project, so design will be important to convey the many messages.
