Beschreibung
Excerpt: "e;The term "e;gringo"e;-a word of vague origin, once applied with contempt to the American in Mexico-is now used throughout Latin America, without its former opprobrium, to describe any foreigner. The Spanish "e;manana"e;-literally "e;to-morrow"e;-is extremely popular south of the Rio Grande, where, in phrases suggesting postponement, it enables the inhabitant to solve many of life's most perplexing problems. This book covers various random wanderings in Mexico, Guatemala, Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica. It deals with a romance or two, a revolution or so, and a hodge-podge of personal experience."e;
