Carve Your Own Totem Pole looks at the history of totem-pole carving, its West Coast native traditions, techniques and patterns, and the historic and modern tools involved. It also presents great ideas for carving your own pole, whether with traditional designs or more personal folk-art motifs.

Learn how to design, carve and paint your own masks and totem poles from two modern masters whose work has been praised by Haida carvers. Artist James McKee shows how to create drawings and templates in authentic West Coast styles, while carving instructor Wayne Hill reveals how to select the right wood and employ your tools to best advantage. They also provide special notes on the meaning of figures, painting your pole and selecting the best place to display it.
