This book delivers a systematic investigation of Native American princess pageants, exploring when and why they started, how they spread across and within Native American communities, the ways in which these pageants differ from other contests (such as Miss USA), the workings of the pageants themselves, and their socio-cultural costs and benefits.

Sebahattin Ziyanak is associate professor of sociology at the University of Texas Permian Basin. Steven Aicinena is retired professor of kinesiology at the University of Texas Permian Basin.
