Description: "This study of indigenous peoples of Guatemala, all displaced by violence to Guatemala City, puts its subjects' voices front and center. Several dozen respondents, originally from Izabal and El Quiché departments, discuss a wide variety of topics, from the conditions behind their flights to their deep religiosity. Statistical data allow us to see their social profiles and to contrast them with another indigenous group living in the capital city by choice"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
