Inside This Book (learn more)
First Sentence:
Seventeenth-century Spanish explorers first thought that the peninsula now called Baja California was an island and, despite over three hundred years of evidence to the contrary, it maintains a palpable air of isolation - from the rest of Mexico and from the other half of its original territory just north of the border with the United States. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Baja guidebook, November 13, 2007
This is so well-written it is a good read from cover-to-cover. I consider it the best Baja guidebook on Amazon and second only to the AAA guidebook. This is one of the very few that I would consider a must-have on a trip to Baja. Tons of current, factual information and recommendations.

5.0 out of 5 stars I can't wait to get there, December 26, 2006
The Rough Guides are my favorite guide books, and this guide to Baja California is great, too. It's been invaluable in planning my trip next month. Well-written, to boot.
