History had demonstrated graphically enough, on the Upper Amazon and elsewhere throughout the Americas, that a single well-organized reprisal raid could obliterate a whole village, wipe out the last remnants of an entire tribe, and no one on the outside would even be the wiser. All screams were smothered, all evidence was snuffed out, in the vast depths of the jungle.””
