The People's Guide to Mexico is a different kind of guidebook--one that offers no lists of hotels, restaurants, nightclubs, or beaches. As Carl Franz says in the introduction to this 25th anniversary edition, "It is not about which hotels to stay in or the most interesting villages to visit. The purpose of this book is to teach you how to find out those things for yourself." Instead of telling visitors where to go in Mexico, this book lets travelers know how to go, whether they want to learn Spanish, retire south of the border, or simply travel as long as possible for the least amount of money. The People's Guide offers up witty anecdotes and sane, reasoned advice about everything from driving in Mexico to dealing with Mexican machismo to making the most of village fiestas. Best of all, the book provides a respectful and well-informed take on Mexican culture. Wherever You Go ... There You Are, reads The People's Guide subtitle, and it's an apt summation of the book's laid-back, roll-with-the-punches attitude. Tuck a copy into your backpack alongside a more conventional guide; it's like having a funny, trusted, and well-traveled friend along to show you the ropes.
Midwest Book Review
This isn't your usual travelogue charting famous places: it outlines cultural encounters which can be anticipated from a visit to Mexico, offering specific advice on everything from navigating public transportation to making homemade mashed potatoes when sick of a Mexican diet. This is a 'must' for any interested in Mexican travel: highly recommended. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
