Journey of a Thousand Miles Through Baja California, the Other Mexico
By
C.M. Mayo
Baja California is a place where nothing is as it seems. As mindful of the peninsula’s history of conquest and exploitation as it is receptive to the extraordinary characters who are drawn to it—from daredevil aviators to expatriate artists, and from hawkers of plastic Virgins to corrupt modern politicos—this book offers a deep reading of this endlessly fascinating place.
