A good book about MX with a special link to Gto

[colleen]

Thanks to Bill for posting the link to archive.org re the Tramping Thru MX book. Years ago I bought Mexico: A Study of Two Americas by Stuart Chase. (Stuart Chase is credited with coming up with the term The New Deal) I found it on Amazon where, now, it is very expensive. And it's not on Gutenberg or any of the usual sites. I once found it in a university library site but can't remember or re-find it. But Bill has come to the rescue and here it is. https://archive.org/stream/mexicoastudyo...9/mode/2up

The reason I find it so interesting is that Mr. Chase came to MX in 1931 to do his travel and research. How did he meet Diego? I'd love to know. It is illustrated with line drawing by Diego Rivera all signed 1931 and it was published in Dec, 1931. I have used a few of the Diego drawings to do repujado. You might not be too interested in reading it but it would be nice to check out the Diego drawings. Now I have to explore archive.org more. It sure has alot of stuff.
