Summary note

"Jaialdi: A Celebration of Basque Culture is a photographic showcase of the largest Basque festival in the United States, held in Boise, Idaho, every five years. Jaialdi is a celebration of the traditions of Basque food, dancing, music, food, and competitive feats of strength. The photography of Jon C. Hodgson, combined with the writing of Basque-American expert Nancy Zubiri, captures the essense of the ancient Basque people who have adapted their culture to the Western American landscape"-- Provided by publisher.
