The singing mountaineers; songs and tales of the Quechua people. Collected by José María Arguedas [and others] Drawings by Donald Weismann.

Summary:

The Quechua people, the "singing mountaineers" of Peru, still sing the songs that their Inca ancestors knew before the Spaniards invaded the Andes. Some of these songs, collected and translated into Spanish by Jose Maria Arguedas and Maria Lourdes Valladares from the Quechua language and the Huanca dialect, are now presented for the first time in English in the beautiful translations of Ruth Stephan, author of the recent prize-winning novel, The Flight.
