This book is a great read for any trip in or near the Amazon. It is an eyewitness report of the Huaorani Indians who live mostly untouched in the Amazon until oil is discovered in their territory. It is written by a reporter who got closer than he expected he would. The story is particular to this place and these people, but it is a very common story in the Amazon to have oil and other development dramatically impact previously private indigenous people.    ~  elizmartin
