| "A
'must' guide for anyone thinking of driving through
Mexico and Central America." --
Central America Weekly Newspaper.
The purpose of this guidebook is to assist those
wishing to drive to areas of Mexico and Central
America in conjunction with the NAFTA program,
or for any other reason. The United States was
a sleeping giant in the l9th century. The
railroads that were built across the country were
the instrumental forces in its development. Mexico
and Central America are being awakened from their
slumber by the building of the Pan-American Highway.
In
the future travel and a new ectourism will stride
hand in hand with industry
to create exciting and explosive new growth in
this part of the world.
This will lead to the development of new
tourist meccas for vacationing
North Americans and others. Furthermore,
the present economy
is forcing many retirees
and senior citizens—living on fixed incomes— to
seek more affordable
housing and life-styles. Just like the birds
facing the
coming winter, they are turning to the South in
ever greater numbers.
The
massive numbers of automobiles in these countries
assures proper road
maintenance and complete service stations. These
new stations are being
equipped with stateside
Circle K-type mini-marts and provide complete
car care.
The
past history of the Aztec and Mayan civilizations
are here for us to rediscover.
The greatest discovery we have in store,
are the lovely and fascinating
peoples of Mexico and Central America. With these
things in mind, we have created this annual guidebook
as an aid,
so you can step out without fear, and enjoy this
historical part of our
Western Hemisphere.
