Town and regional maps. Reviews: Great Guide for a Much Overlooked Part of Mexico. I'm planning a trip to Veracruz soon, so I was delighted to find this book recently. All I was able to find before were general Mexico travel guides which gave scant attention to the state of Veracruz or the Gulf Coast area. This guide gives excellent, in-depth information on this much overlooked part of Mexico. All the cities and towns I plan to visit were listed in this guide, and good information on lodging was given. The general Mexico guides seem to recommend only the most expensive places to stay, while the Gulf Coast guide also includes budget accommodations. There was also good information on the archaeological sites to visit, where to stay and how to get there. Best of all, there was information in this book that I hadn't been able to find on the internet, which is where I had been augmenting the meager information on Veracruz that was in my other Mexico travel guides. In addition to the well researched and well presented written material, the book contains a nice section of color photographs, many of which were taken by the author. -- Marie McC (VA, United States) This is the only guidebook I've ever seen that focuses on the Gulf Coast states of Mexico. Fortunately, it's an excellent one. If the Gulf Coast of Mexico is of interest to you, you should definitely add this book to your collection. Super helpful book if you're looking to be more adventurous than just going to Cancun! Seems to be very well researched and has a fresh just-been-there feel to it. -- S.D. Barnes"

Download or read book The River People in Flood Time written by Terry Rugeley and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The River People in Flood Time tells the astonishing story of how the people of nineteenth-century Tabasco, Mexico, overcame impossible odds to expel foreign interventions. Tabascans resisted control by Mexico City, overcame the grip of a Cuban adventurer who seized the region for two years, turned back the United States Navy, and defeated the French Intervention of the early 1860s, thus remaining free territory while the rest of the nation struggled for four painful years under the imposed monarchy of Maximilian. With colorful anecdotes and biographical sketches, this deeply researched and masterfully written history reconstructs the lives and culture of the Tabascans, as well as their pre-Columbian and colonial past. Rugeley reveals how over the centuries, one colorful character after another sets foot on the Tabascan stage, only to be undone by climate, disease, and more than anything else, tenacious Tabascan resistance. Virtually the only English-language study of this little-known province, River People in Flood Time explores the ways in which geography, climate, and social relationships contributed to an extraordinarily successful defense against unwelcome meddling from the outside world. River People in Flood Time demonstrates the complex relationship between imperial forces in relation to remote parts of Latin America, and the way that resistance to external pressure helped mold the thoughts, attitudes, and actions of those remote peoples. Nineteenth-century Mexico was more a land of localities than a unified nation, and Rugeley's narrative paints an indelible portrait of one of its least known and most unique provinces.
Download or read book The Tabasco Lowlands of Southeastern Mexico written by Robert Cooper West and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tabasco lowlands form Mexico's largest alluvial coastal plain. Bordering the southernmost part of the Gulf of Mexico, these lowlands are hot and wet. They afford a laboratory in which to examine physical processes and living conditions within a humid tropical coastal environment. Geologically, the lowlands are composed of two distinct surfaces: (1) the Recent alluvial plain, made up of river deltas, flood plains, and beach deposits; and (2), farther inland, the Pleistocene alluvial surface of highly weathered stream-deposited sediments. The morphology of the Recent alluvial plain is a product of Mexico's two most voluminous rivers, the Grijalva-Mezcalapa and the Usumacinta. Several tropical vegetation formations, each with its particular faunal assemblage, once covered the Tabasco lowlands. Before its alteration by man a dense rain forest was the most extensive formation, followed in size by freshwater marsh in interlevee depressions. Despite a seemingly unfavorable environment, the Tabasco deltaic plain was well populated in pre-Columbian times, as evidenced by archeology and early Spanish accounts. After 400 years of demographic and economic decline, the lowlands have only recently regained population densities and economic importance comparable to those before the Conquest. (Author).
