Gustave Baumann was a superb woodcarver, who was captivated by puppet theatre. In the 1930s, Baumann carved a collection of marionettes for plays he wrote about New Mexico's cultural heritage. Featuring the photographs of twenty-five marionettes, this book tells the story of Baumann's theatre, describing the plays, sets, and costuming.
