"This book focuses on the historical evolution of textiles and dress in the context of the various ethnic nationalities of the Niger Delta. It shows how different cultures have used materials in the environments to create things of beauty and personal adornment, and also appropriate elements from their neighbours and from distant places outside the Niger Delta. The work highlights creative, imaginative, and original innovations by communities and individuals. It is an encouragement to use old things to create new things, and the ability to adopt new things into old traditions"--Back cover.
