“Mexico by Motorcycle: An Adventure Story and Guide” will satisfy the armchair traveler. Ex-pats recommend William Kaliher’s book for those exploring beyond the tourist enclaves.

Motorcycle is in the title but is only the mode of transportation. The work provides thumbnail sketches of history and cultural difference while you vicariously adventure through ever-changing Mexico. Perhaps the best reviewers compliment was, “It reads like a novel.” The book is available at Amazon.com and at Ed’s Editions in West Columbia.
