Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mexico: Picturesque; Political; Progressive
This being so, it is small cause for surprise to find near us, united to portions of our southern country by ties of common origin, customs, and language, a land almost unknown, much mis understood, and wholly misrepresented. A Coun try picturesque beyond description, and beautiful beyond belief; with traditions of the past to interest the antiquarian, and problems of the future to occupy the progressionist; with the fascinations of a strange tongue and a strange people, and with that indefinable Charm which those indolent, lotos-eating lands exercise always over the sterner and colder nature of the north man, - Mexico lies among her mountains, almost as far removed from human ken as the Enchanted Beauty before the Prince kissed her sleeping eyes.
