Sobre este item
New York, New York, USA: Laurel/Dell Publishing, 1987. Paperback. Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" tall. Laurel Trade Paperback in Good Condition. A Political Ornithology of Central America. Colorful and bright wraps with illus of a large bird on front, clean and unmarked with wear around all edges; binding solid, spine not creased; text block edges and pages are clean with no marks of any kind. Maslow's account of his journey into Guatemala traces the history of the Quetzal, a near mythical bird sacred to the Maya, and the Guatemalan people, from the heights of classical Myan civilization to the depths of depredation today--where the Bird of Life, the Quetzal, is dying, and the Bird of Death, the vulture, is fluorishing. Edward Abbey said this was "A bold journey into the heart of one of the most cruel , corrupt, and evil places on earth". 249 pages, indexed. 1987, Laurel/Dell Publishing, New York, New York, USA
