Trade Review
Faces of Resistance adopts an original approach to explore the politics and history of indigenous activism and identity in the Maya area. It offers a significant contribution to the field, in particular the impact of little known or under-represented people from a range of historical and contemporary settings."" - Arturo Arias, author of Taking Their Word: Literature and the Signs of Central America
