Publisher Description
A smashing good true story about a young Yankee trapped in tropical Central America, exploring a strange parallel universe of three thousand years of victimization and blood letting. Experience his coming of age with foreigners, captivated by thier strange beauty and bizarre customs that our hero cannot understand. Gentle people; they live in paradise on a dollar a day, and die for less. A picaresque memoir not for the faint of heart, but guaranteed to make your heart bigger. A sunny vision of white-bread Anglo North America's future in twenty-five years, when the Hispanic minority becomes the largest minority, and changes not only the demographics of America, but its culture. With this book, you may prepare yourself for the whirlwind of culture shock by experiencing firsthand the adventures of a young man who feels a tribal and instinctual reluctance to accept the Third World's view of the US and its foreign policy. As Guatemala threatens war with Belice tomorrow, he starts a new relationship, and that night an earthquake stops the war with widespread destruction and the deaths of twenty two thousand people.
