Mexican Streets

- Tales of Tragedy and Triumph

Om Mexican Streets

Histories of Mexico abound, but few are read. Mexican Streets: Tales of Tragedy and Triumph is the first introduction to Mexican history composed of brief, intriguing biographies (the stories behind the street names), arranged chronologically, but able to be enjoyed in any order as stand-alone tales of courage, adventure, betrayal, folly and redemption. Mexican Streets engenders a love of history and some of its oft-forgotten heroes, heroines and villains; a compassion, even admiration for the long-suffering Mexican people; and, above all, a wonderment at the nobility, irony, anarchy and drama of the human experience. Mexican Streets will be cherished by anyone who visits or lives in the beautiful country that is Mexico, anyone who meanders its streets and wonders about their fascinating stories.
