From the Author:

If you're going to Mexico, this is a readable survival guide
I've received many appreciative letters from readers who tucked my book into suitcases or knapsacks as they headed south to a land they did not know. I don't tell people which hotel to stay in or how much a meal will cost, but if you are interested in getting beyond the surface reality of resorts such as Cancun or Puerto Vallarta, my 20 stories of representatives Mexicans will tell you a bit about what makes Mexicans tick and why you should care even if you never visit Mexico.
