Editorial Reviews

Review

“A good read if Americans are to better understand their next door neighbor.”–George W. Grayson, professor of government, College of William & Mary, and author of Mexico: Narco-Violence and a Failed State?

“An exciting read for anyone who’s the least bit interested in Mexico. It could become the standard for the 22 million Americans and other foreigners who visit every year.”–Clifford Irving, author of Tom Mix and Pancho Villa

“Butterfield confirms the issue that illegal drugs are an integral part of American culture and the economy of Mexico. Bravo for a story well told that follows today’s headlines.”–Jorge Fernández Menéndez, author of The Enemy at Home: Drugs and Drug Dealing in Mexico

“The author has combined Mexican history with his own experiences across many years of living in Mexico. A well-informed book, especially as it pertains to my time in Mexico as ambassador.”–James Jones, U.S. ambassador to Mexico, 1993-1997

“This book is a must read for any American wanting to do business in Mexico, become an expat, or simply visit. Butterfield brings a seldom-heard balanced view of heroes and villains across centuries of Mexican history. He also has the ability to not take sides when it comes to the relations between Mexico and the United States. To appreciate this complicated relationship between neighbors, it is only possible by understanding the past.”–Alfonso Cortina, former director, The Economist Peer Forum in Mexico, and president, The Pinnacle Group
