This book is Vol. 11. Filled with beautiful illustrations--taken by the author--the Amazonian Tribes: a World of Difference is an excellent book to introduce the whole family to the wonders of the amazon indigenous tribes. Organized around the social and cultural life of three distinct tribes: the Ashanikas, the Pirahas and the Ye'kuana, the photos and descriptions engage all the senses. This remarkable book about the indigenous life cycle, spirituality, customs and rituals--inspired by the author's experience--amply fills his mission to provide readers with an unforgettable photo-narrative woven into text and illustration. The Amazonian Tribes: a World of Differences is a welcome and strongly recommended addition to family, schools, and community libraries and another entry in the popular Amazon Exploration Series.
