Publisher Description: South American immigrants come from a variety of cultural and racial backgrounds. Some are dark-skinned, dark-haired, Spanish-speakers. Others are fair-skinned, blue-eyed people. Some are pureblooded Inca Indians who speak their own ancient Quechua dialect. This book lets you sample the zest and variety South Americans add to the American salad. |
