Here's the NCC Press on-line catalog description:

HOGANS: NAVAJO HOUSE AND HOUSE SONGS By David McAllester "Hogans contains a sampling of house blessing, songs and prayers identifying the simple,traditional Navajo structures with many-chambered dwellings of tribal gods. Photographs capture sunlight, shadows and silence on the modern reservation, while the translations-keeping vocablesand Navajo word order retain the feeling of their originals better than previous attempts. An excellent tribute to any housewarming." Kenneth Funsten, Los Angeles Times Book Review. Reprint from Wesleyan University Press, Middletown, Connecticut. 116 pages.
