Description
Celebrate life, death, and everything in between!
Holiday celebrations in Mexico are often noisy, raucous, and colorful affairs. Exuberant and uplifting, they are rooted in religion, community, and family.
This collection of travel essays brings you all of it--the excitement and color and crowds and traditions--of uniquely Mexican holiday celebrations. From the rituals of the Day of the Dead to the historic grito of Mexican Independence Day to the magic of a Mexican Christmas posada, this is the real Mexico.
Twenty-two contributors banded together to share the magic of Mexican celebrations. We are writers, artists, educators, travelers, business owners and others who have fallen in love with a culture. Most are expatriates living in Mexico who have found both opportunity and inspiration there.
This is the companion volume to THE INSIDER'S GUIDE TO THE BEST OF MEXICO, a broad collection of essays that ranged across Mexican art, architecture, history, beaches, hotels, restaurants, and of course, food. As in that book, this holiday collection of essays is neither formal guidebook, social commentary, nor a substitute for unbiased news. Instead, it is an effort to share a landscape and culture that have found a place in the hearts of so many.
Whether you are contemplating your next vacation, retirement, work-related move to Mexico, or are simply an armchair traveler, we hope you enjoy these insider stories of the best of Mexican holidays.
