Este audio libro integra, en una redacción original, por un lado, algunos fragmentos de la crónica de Bernal Díaz del Castillo, Historia de la Conquista de la Nueva España, y, por otro, las aportaciones de Fernando Orozco Linares, investigador en historia, lo que da como resultado una obra fascinante que actualiza la narración de la Conquista.

La crónica reseña la violencia que vivió Metlatónoc el 25 de septiembre de 2000, sumergido entonces por la matanza de Aguas Blancas y con la presión no sólo de la guerrilla y el Ejército, sino del narcotráfico, que se apoderó de la región para el cultivo de amapola.

La serie de comportamientos y formas de pensar tan peculiares que trajo consigo el siglo XIX en México es el eje conductor de esta obra, así como su asimilación dentro de la sociedad. El autor evoca imágenes olvidadas en los rincones de México, lo cual se convierte en algo vital para comprender el trazo mexicano, el origen de sus mañas y de sus creencias más arraigadas. Además, cada capítulo de Diré adiós a los señores obsequia al oyente expresiones típicas de la época, como refranes o dichos.

Il Messico è il paese dei contrasti estremi. E all'estremo di tutto, c'è Mahahual: dove finisce la penisola dello Yucatán, sorge questo paesino di mille abitanti, a pochi chilometri dalla frontiera con il Belize. Angolo di paradiso tra palme e mangrovie, di fronte ha la barriera corallina seconda al mondo per estensione, il Mar dei Caraibi e lo scorrere lento del tempo: siamo nello stato del Quintana Roo, che a nord vanta la celebre Cancún, mentre qui c'è l'opposto assoluto, non solo geografico, perché a Mahahual il cemento non ha ancora invaso la vista.

In The Search for the Codex Cardona, Arnold J. Bauer tells the story of his experiences on the trail of a cultural treasure, a Mexican “painted book” that first came into public view at Sotheby’s auction house in London in 1982, nearly 400 years after it was presumably made by Mexican artists and scribes. On folios of amate paper, the Codex includes two oversized maps and 300 painted illustrations accompanied by text in 16-century paleography.

El humor se convierte en el arma que se defiende de la opresión, la injusticia, y la violencia. El gran solitario de Palacio es una obra sobre México, y sin embargo tiene algo del efecto globalizador que caracterizó al Boom latinoamericano: escrita en México, París, y Madrid, se publicó por primera vez en 1971 en Argentina; y de alguna manera representa una realidad que se ha repetido una y otra vez en la historia de Latinoamérica.

Combining on-the-ground reporting and in-depth discussions with people on the frontlines of Mexico's drug war, To Die in Mexico tells behind-the-scenes stories that address the causes and consequences of Mexico's multibillion dollar drug trafficking business. John Gibler looks beyond the myths that pervade government and media portrayals of the unprecedented wave of violence now pushing Mexico to the breaking point.

The term Mexican Drug War misleads. It implies that the ongoing bloodbath, which has now killed well over 100,000 people, is an internal Mexican affair. But this diverts attention from the US role in creating and sustaining the carnage. It's not just that Americans buy drugs from and sell weapons to Mexico's murderous cartels. It's that ever since the US prohibited the use and sale of drugs in the early 1900s, it has pressured Mexico into acting as its border enforcer - with increasingly deadly consequences.

In 2002, the town of Galesburg, a slowly declining Rustbelt city of 33,000 in western Illinois, learned that it would soon lose its largest factory, a Maytag refrigerator plant that had anchored Galesburg's social and economic life for decades. Workers at the plant earned $15.14 an hour, had good insurance, and were assured a solid retirement. In 2004, the plant was relocated to Reynosa, Mexico, where workers sometimes spent 13-hour days assembling refrigerators for $1.10 an hour.

The Interior Circuit is Goldman's story of his emergence from grief five years after his wife's death, symbolized by his attempt to overcome his fear of driving in the city. Embracing the DF (Mexico City) as his home, Goldman explores and celebrates the city, which stands defiantly apart from so many of the social ills and violence wracking Mexico. This is the chronicle of an awakening, both personal and political, "interior" and "exterior", to the meaning and responsibilities of home.

Learn the unbelievable true history of the great warrior tribes of Mexico. More than 13 centuries of incredible spellbinding history are detailed in this intriguing study of the rulers and warriors of Mexico. Dozens of these charismatic leaders of nations and armies are brought to life by the deep research and entertaining storytelling of Peter Tsouras. Tsouras introduces the reader to the colossal personalities of the period.

When thinking about the border separating the United States from Mexico, what typically comes to mind is an unwelcoming zone with violent, poverty-ridden towns, cities, and maquiladoras on one side and an increasingly militarized network of barriers and surveillance systems on the other. It was not always this way. In fact, from the end of Mexican-American War until the late twentieth century, the border was a very porous and loosely regulated region.

As late as the 1960s, tacos were virtually unknown outside Mexico and the American Southwest. Within fifty years the United States had shipped taco shells everywhere from Alaska to Australia, Morocco to Mongolia. But how did this tasty hand-held food - and Mexican food more broadly - become so ubiquitous? In Planet Taco, Jeffrey Pilcher traces the historical origins and evolution of Mexico's national cuisine, explores its incarnation as a Mexican American fast-food, shows how surfers became global pioneers of Mexican food, and how Corona beer conquered the world.

Historian Isaac Campos combines wide-ranging archival research with the latest scholarship on the social and cultural dimensions of drug-related behavior in this telling of marijuana's remarkable history in Mexico. Introduced in the sixteenth century by the Spanish, cannabis came to Mexico as an industrial fiber and symbol of European empire. But, Campos demonstrates, as it gradually spread to indigenous pharmacopoeias, then prisons and soldiers' barracks, it took on both a Mexican name -marijuana - and identity as a quintessentially "Mexican" drug.

Cada fin de año, en México nos da por pensar en el pasado y en el futuro, en lo que hicimos mal y en lo que podemos mejorar “si Dios y la Virgen quieren”. Esta emoción de abrir y cerrar ciclos viene con una fuerte carga cultural y simbólica relacionada con nuestros ritos y supersticiones: barrer la casa, pasear con maletas, comer doce uvas…

Terra dos maias e astecas, dos sombreros e mariachis, da tequila, das telenovelas e da Nossa Senhora de Guadalupe. Esse é o México mais evidente e mais conhecido pelos brasileiros. Mas o povo mexicano guarda muito mais segredos e surpresas. É um povo cheio de contrastes. Os mexicanos são nacionalistas, mas há milhões deles que sonham em cruzar a fronteira e viver nos EUA.
