“I read this for my book club.
There were some interesting adventures in this book, and it was fun to read about Mexico before the revolution, and before tourism took it over. But overall, the style was difficult to read. It was just the facts with no personal reflection, which became tiresome.
Also, the author seemed very self-indulgent in his adventures. Trying to find time to read this while raising kids and running a house while my husband works was a little much knowing he just takes off on a whim to spend years wandering in Mexico.
I wouldn't recommend it.”
