PAotFCbackcoverPractical Atlatlry of the Four Corners, by Justin Garnett. Practical atlatlry of the Four Corners is a guidebook for those interested in crafting their own Basketmaker style atlatl and dart sets. While the focus area of this book is the Four Corners region of the American Southwest, atlatls and darts of similar form were much more widespread, being found over much western North America. Full of  photographs, drawings, and tutorials, this book will assist in the creation of a Basketmaker style toolkit which will be tailored to the user, and if well treated will serve them for many years. A complete guide, this book contains instructions for all aspects of atlatl and dart construction, from dart shafts to field points, fingerloops to fetish bundles. It can be purchased by clicking this hyperlink, or on Amazon.
