by John M. Perkins

  • RELIGION
  • 1994

An activist on behalf of indigenous cultures and founder of the "Earth Dream Alliance", the author provides a personal account of his sometimes hard-to-believe experiences with curanderos (or shamans) in the highlands and Amazon of Ecuador. Whatever your thoughts on the concept of a vision quest, the book includes an fascinating account of the author's time with the Shuar people, their rituals and religious ideas.  (AMZ46, $14.95)
