Summary "Discourse-centered approach to Shuar life history presents an autobiography of a Shuar warrior, and provides a discussion of Shuar speech events and their linguistic, cultural, and situational contexts. Given the paucity of anthropological studies of individual life narratives in lowland South America, work is an important contribution"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57. http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
