Courage Tastes of Blood: The Mapuche Community of Nicolás Ailío and the Chilean State, 1906-2001 - Mallon, Florencia E.

Clean, tight, unmarked; light crease to bottom front inside corner; otherwise very minimal wear; appears unread; Mallon gives history a human face. Her description of a Mapuche community's struggle to recover land rights previously lost in extremely adverse conditions underscores the promise of historical work to go way beyond the cold, distanced analysis of things past. The Mapuche navigate the pages of this book with the sturdy competence of devoted craftsmen carving their own destiny.
