"Fully illustrated with photographs and drawings A Bearer of Tradition not only tells the story of one basketmaker's life - his values hopes and disappointments - but also explains the basketmaking process: the arduous search for just the right type of oak tree the demanding physical labor invovled in pulling the round rods and the final step of the weaving itself. Through her transcripts of many years of tape-recorded sessions Joyce allows Dwight Stump to tell his own story from the loss of his mother at an early age to his disappointment at exhausting the local education system after the eight grade through his years of financial struggle when he worked at an astonishing variety of jobs including employment as a farm laborer carpenter timber cutter sawmiller candy vendor cook well-digger constable Sunday school superintendent factory worker and plumber. The basketmaking was only a small part of his income until his years in retirement when he has been able to devote full time to his baskets and other traditional pursuits: herb-gathering collecting Indian artifacts 'water smelling' dowsing and crafting sisal rugs and canes." - dust jacket description.
