Guatemala draws some half million tourists each year, whose brief visits to the ruins of ancient Maya cities and contemporary highland Maya villages may give them only a partial and folkloric understanding of Guatemalan society. In this vividly written travel narrative, Stephen Connely Benz explores the Guatemala that casual travelers miss, using his encounters with ordinary Guatemalans at the mall, on the streets, at soccer games, and even at the funeral of massacre victims to illuminate the social reality of Guatemala today. The book opens with an extended section on the capital, Guatemala City, and then moves out to the more remote parts of the country where the Guatemalan Indians predominate. Benz offers us a series of intelligent and sometimes humorous perspectives on Guatemala's political history and the role of the military, the country's environmental degradation, the influence of foreign missionaries, and especially the impact of the United States on Guatemala, from governmental programs to fast food franchises.

Bacon) Atlantis: The Antedeluvian World (I. Donnelly) The Lost Continent (C. J. Cutcliffe Hyne) The Story of Atlantis (W. Scott-Elliot) The lost world is a subgenre of the fantasy or science fiction genre that involves the discovery of a new world out of time or place. King Solomon's Mines by H. Rider Haggard is sometimes considered the first lost-world narrative. Haggard's novel shaped the form and influenced later lost-world books, including Kipling's The Man Who Would Be King, Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World, Burroughs' The Land That Time Forgot, A. Merritt's The Moon Pool, and H. P. Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness. James Hilton's Lost Horizon used the genre as a takeoff for popular philosophy and social comment and it introduced the name Shangri-La, a meme for the idealization of the lost world as a paradise.

THE JOURNEY TO ATLANTICA Aztlantica is the spiritual homeland of the Quetzalcóatl Prophecy. The Journey brings forth new insights, hidden history, and a future in peril. The Journey to Aztlantica is a call for renewal and transformation to a new world. The Journey expresses concern about the degenerating trajectory of capitalistic systems and their influence on the future stabilities of world societies and governments. The old-world economic worldview is set to regression and is condusive to social disintegration. This book alludes to the need for individuals to prepare themselves to confront and survive the extreme calamities of a future in peril. The Journey calls for the building of an alternative economic system as a way to change the human character and behavior. Aztlantica is calling for new social, cultural, and spiritual models. It calls for establishing a respectful and balanced relationship with the natural environment. The Journey proposes a new spiritual movement for the new world, a religion that would be compatible with the new worldview. Aztlantica calls for the refinement and rejuvenation of all cultures in order to promote respect, peace, balance, and harmony around the world. The Journey stresses the need to cross over to a new worldview reality. It calls for the adoption of the circular worldview of reality. In order for humanity to survive adequately into the future and create a sustainable world in which humanity can live, prosper and advance: individuals must first transform themselves before they can transform the future.

Mximo Serrano Hrcules was born in El Salvador in February 1961. He comes from a peasant family working in the countryside. He had very little education due to the precarious economic conditions in the country, so he had to start working on the farms since his adolescence. Being so young, he sees himself in a desperate situation due to the internal political war in El Salvador. By the simple instinct to preserve life, he was forced to immigrate to other countries, and he adventured in other unknown lands as a working journey from Guatemala, Mexico, the United States, and Canada in infrahuman situations as an undocumented being. Because of the veracity of the war problem that caused bloodshed in his country, he was granted by the United Nations to become a permanent resident in Canada since 1989, and now he has become a regular worker as a Canadian citizen. He uses his free moments for literature and for his tasks as a human being. He loves poetry and anything related with arts and culture.

The Quetzal And The Macaw written by David Rains Wallace and has been published by Random House (NY) this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1992 with Nature categories.
Wallace details the unbelievable diversity of life in this rich land: pumas, ocelots, peccaries, howler monkeys--and the scarlet macaws and resplendent quetzals, the birds symbolizing two of Costa Rica's earliest parks. The park system became the nucleus of a socio-political network that has successfully battled loggers, miners, ranchers, and government development agencies. Enlivened throughout by the voices of people actually involved in establishing and managing the parks and preserves, Wallace's narrative is by turns suspenseful, humorous, and inspiring.
