1 The Best of Mexico's Copper Canyon
Fabulous book--great color pictures! A must for every travel library. I am ordering a second book, so I can lend it out to friends!
2 This books captures the people of the Copper Canyon.
Whether you plan to take a trip to Mexico's Copper Canyon or not, this book is a wonderful journey into that region. It provides both a fascinating look at the Tarahumara Indians as well as travel tips for the adventurous traveler.

Padre Luis Verplancken, S.J., the co-author of the books, has lived in the Copper Canyon region for more than 20 years. He provides an intimate portrait of the Tarahumara, both in words and pictures. Through Padre Verplancken, we learn about the Tarahumara people, religion, and social structures.

Mr. Fisher has compiled additional information on some of the other interesting places in the region. No trip to the Copper Canyon is complete, for example, without a visit to Batopilas. Or take a trip on the the Chihuahua El Pacifico railroad.

So whether you are an armchair traveller or a hearty hiker, this book is a must.

Quote of the Day:


And the French medical anatomist Etienne Serres really did argue that

black males are primitive because the distance between their navel and
penis remains small (relative to body height) throughout life, while
white children begin with a small separation but increase it during
growth -- the rising belly button as a mark of progress.

God is subtle, but he is not malicious.
