Mexico, guide, Bibliothèque du voyageur, Gallimard (Book) by Felicity Laughton. Corinne Hewlett, Pierre de Laubier, Jean-Noël Mouret (Translators), Paperback, Very good condition. 378 pages. 2006. Bibliothèque du Voyageur. Gallimard Loisirs. In French.
This guide has two objectives: to inform and illustrate. More than twenty authors, photographers, academics, journalists or great travelers, have collaborated on this volume to offer you the most complete guide, a lively story where historical anecdotes, picturesque paintings and practical information follow one another and complement each other. After the great Aztec and Mayan civilizations, and the shock of the arrival of Cortés, the colonial era and the Zapatista revolution, Mexico alternates between the “Westernist” temptation and Latin American solidarity.
A true cultural mosaic, Mexico also has great artistic riches and an extraordinary sense of celebration. Mexico, the urban “monster”, and Teotihuacan, the “city of the gods”; the inhospitable deserts of the North; in the Center, the green hills, lakes and volcanoes of Michoacan and the Bay of Acapulco; in the South, the mysterious ruins of Yucatan, the baroque splendor of Oaxaca, the Indian villages and the spectacular Chiapas. Forty pages to find out everything about departure formalities, transport, accommodation, restaurants, culture, leisure, etc.
