"A rich and riveting description of the vanishing traditions of Highland Mayan costumbreros ." - Journal of Folklore Research, "A rich and riveting description of the vanishing traditions of Highland Mayan costumbreros ." -- Journal of Folklore Research, "An outstanding contribution to the field of ethnographic studies in highland Guatemala. Not only is it an informed and insightful account of her work among the Maya Prayersayers in the Cuchumatanes region of Guatemala, but it is also a truly great read-an evocative portrait of Maya traditionalists attempting to maintain the practice of their ancient faith in the face of remarkably trying circumstances. Many of the ceremonies she describes have already ceased to be performed, and others are in imminent danger of disappearing forever. This book is therefore, in some cases, the last eyewitness account of traditional rituals that had survived for centuries." - Allen J.
