In "Maya Roads, "McConahay draws upon her three decades of
traveling and living in Central America's remote landscapes to
create a fascinating chronicle of the people, politics,
archaeology, and species of the Central American rainforest, the
cradle of Maya civilization. Captivated by the magnificence and
mystery of the jungle, the author brings to life the intense
beauty, the fantastic locales, the ancient ruins, and the horrific
violence. She witnesses archaeological discoveries, the
transformation of the Lacandon people, the Zapatista indigenous
uprising in Mexico, increased drug trafficking, and assists in the
uncovering of a war crime. Over the decades, McConahay has
witnessed great changes in the region, and this is a unique tale of
a woman's adventure and the adaptation and resolve of a people.
