description: Engulfed in the darkness of Irian Jaya's Snow Mountains live the Yali – naked cannibals who call themselves "lords of the earth." Yet in terror and bondage they serve women-hating, child-despising gods. Lords of the Earth is the story of Dale, his wife, his companions, and thousand of Yali tribesmen – all swept together in a maelstrom of agony and blood that climaxes in a dramatic, unexpected ending. Author Don Richardson is a missionary, filmmaker, teacher, translator, anthropologist, and builder. He and his wife Carol, have worked in evangelizing and preserving the culture of primitive tribes in Irian Jayan since 1962. This book includes a bound center black and white photo insert.
