Synopsis
Excerpt from Travels in Mexico and Life Among the Mexicans
If, during the many months intervening between the conception and the completion of this volume, the author has wearied of his task, or has doubted the wisdom or expediency of it, he has constantly derived consolation from the reflection that, in helping to make Mexico better known to the world at large, he is but lending his aid to a progressive movement, that is not to end until the American the hitherto hated Gringo - shall have pushed his engines to the extremest portion of that Greater South; and a trade legitimate and prosperous shall flow in those longitudinal channels which require the traversing of no broad ocean or tempestuous sea.
With this hopeful suggestion, that the reader View the Mexican Move ment in the same catholic light, the author ventures to add another volume to the already large list of works on Mexico.
