Now available in paperback, this informal account of the people,
culture, land, and history of Sonora, Mexico, describes blistering
deserts, alpine mountains, tropical river valleys, and arid
coastlines, and relates the lives and stories of cattlemen,
lumbermen, fishermen, weavers, cobblers, musicians, bootleggers,
and Indians. The author's curiosity extends to the weaving of
Nacori hats, the distillation of fiery bacanora, and the utility of
the tegua, the Sonoran cowboy boot. Sonora is also a record of
painful twentieth-century change of human dislocation from rural
villages to industrial cities and the relentless destruction of
Sonoran forests, jungles, deserts, and rivers. A regular visitor
for over thirty years, the author provides a colorful portrait of
the Sonora of the past, present, and future.
