by Keith Bowden

The Tecate Journals: Seventy Days on the Rio Grande Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Journalist Bowden writes of his journey to become the first person to travel the entire length of the Rio Grande as it forms the border between America and Mexico, in this elegant, gritty, and contemporary look at the culture and people he encountered.

Book News Annotation:

A runner of rivers whose day job is teaching writing in Laredo, Bowden presents his record of a journey along the length of the river forming the border between the US and Mexico. He dealt more with people, and his perceptions as well as theirs, than with white water rapids. He does not provide an index. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
