The Huaorani Indians live in one of the remotest regions of the Ecuardorian Amazon, and they are so fearsome that they had driven off generations of invaders. Then oil was discovered in their territory, and suddenly everyone-from petroleum companies to missionaries and environmentalists-wanted a piece of them.
A riveting adventure!
