| Summary |
A land of extremes, from active volcanic peaks to dense rain forests, Guatemala has sustained great civilizations and attracted foreign conquerors. While shadows of its vicious, decades-long civil war still linger, Guatemala's people work toward peace and stability. Illuminating photographs and insightful facts help the reader discover what it's like to live in Guatemala. |
