Precipitous canyons, dark caves, and scenic mountainous vistas provide a magnificent backdrop for this account of Mexico's contemporary Tarahumara Indians. The Tarahumaras remain isolated in the Sierra Madre Occidentals, their beloved "Mother Mountains", little changed despite 300 years of exposure to Spanish soldiers, missionaries, and the Mexican people.
