The Land Beyond Mexico (1920)

The Land Beyond Mexico is a travelogue written by Rhys Carpenter and first published in 1920. The book recounts Carpenter's journey through Central America and the Caribbean, exploring the cultures, landscapes, and histories of the various countries he visits. Beginning in Mexico, Carpenter travels through Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, and the West Indies, describing the people he meets, the customs he observes, and the natural wonders he encounters. Along the way, he reflects on the impact of colonialism, the struggles for independence, and the ongoing political and economic challenges faced by these nations. The Land Beyond Mexico offers a vivid and engaging portrait of a region that was still relatively unknown to most Americans at the time of its publication, and remains a fascinating glimpse into the past and present of these diverse and complex societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
