The life of the four million Maya who live in the rain forests of Central America and southern Mexico is documented in this stunning photographic essay of unusual beauty. Concentrating on the area of Chiapas, the book captures the essence of the Maya: their daily rituals, their religious beliefs, their shamanistic practices, their arts and crafts--in particular, their bold, colorful textiles. The anecdotal text, the beautiful photographs, and the excellent drawings allow us a rare intimate look at this remarkable people.
