Arriba! Baja tells of adventure and humor in the Baja outback. Stories are about that part of Baja unburdened by civilization, inhabited by a proud and resilient people, in a beautiful but desolate and harsh place.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
Arriba! Baja, like its predecessor, Best Stories of Baja, is historical fiction recounting the earthy, uninhibited, and at times humorous adventures in the rugged, picturesque regions of Baja, spread over 400 trips and covering more than 30 years. Woven into a tapestry of recurring characters, one is given an insight into this spectacular land and the fascinating people who inhabit this harsh but wondrous desert by the sea. Arriba! Baja is not a travelogue, nor is it just another fishing story. So if you are looking for stories having to do with modern, civilized Baja, read no further...but if you ever wondered, "What is the untamed, wild side of Baja really like?"...well, sit down, make yourself comfortable, and enjoy the ride. -- From the Publisher
