The Adventures of Don Roberto is a book of action, mystery, friendship and fun. Roberto is a gringo who meets Chapo, the son of a Mexican migrant worker, when his uncle brings Chapo's family from Mexico to work his cotton fields in West Texas. At the tender age of seven, Robert takes the Spanish version of his name. In his mind, the only thing he lacks to be a real Mexican is a Green Card. The boys are friends for life, and the story revolves around their antics when they are young and their adventures, together and separately on both sides of the border, as they become men. Roberto accidentally discovers an international drug smuggling operation and drags a reluctant Chapo into the middle of it. Things get serious when Chapo has to choose between the lives of his wife and children or the life of his friend.

In the Upper Amazon, mestizos are the Spanish-speaking descendants of Hispanic colonizers and the indigenous peoples of the jungle. Some mestizos have migrated to Amazon towns and cities, such as Iquitos and Pucallpa; most remain in small villages. They have retained features of a folk Catholicism and traditional Hispanic medicine, and have incorporated much of the religious tradition of the Amazon, especially its healing, sorcery, shamanism, and the use of potent plant hallucinogens, including ayahuasca. The result is a uniquely eclectic shamanist culture that continues to fascinate outsiders with its brilliant visionary art. Ayahuasca shamanism is now part of global culture. Once the terrain of anthropologists, it is now the subject of novels and spiritual memoirs, while ayahuasca shamans perform their healing rituals in Ontario and Wisconsin. Singing to the Plants sets forth just what this shamanism is about--what happens at an ayahuasca healing ceremony, how the apprentice shaman forms a spiritual relationship with the healing plant spirits, how sorcerers inflict the harm that the shaman heals, and the ways that plants are used in healing, love magic, and sorcery.
