William Henry Bishop wanders through Mexico and the old Spanish provinces of the Southwest, describing colonial towns, ruins, silver mines, and the customs of the people. Written as the border country was being absorbed into the United States, it preserves a vanishing Hispanic world. A rich travelogue of Old Mexico and its lost frontier.
