Description: "Small volume contains excerpts from travel accounts dating from 1893-1926 by three men from Michoacán: Ramón Sánchez Muñiz, Salvador Sotelo Arévalo, and Isaac Gallegos Cervantes. Important corrective to the usual Mexican fascination with foreigners who visited, rather than with Mexicans who went abroad. Very important for students of Mexican economic development"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
