The river-people called my son "pelito maiz," meaning "little corn hair." 
PROLOGUE
"Back-a-Bush" ​​
In the 1970's, Belize was not simply a place, but a unique time-and-space, and now a bygone era. We didn't just live "off-the-grid." There was no grid. Our life "back-a-bush" was colorful, and often dangerous, our spirits honed to a keen edge by the fear-and-necessity that drove us, and fed our young thirst for exploration. It was an age of primitive survival, against which we tested our mettle, armed with nothing more than bravado, bullet-proof youth, and no small measure of naiveté. It was a time in which we pitted ourselves, in the name of adventure, against whatever Mother Nature and karma could dish out.                                               ~NK
