Book Description
Touring New Mexico is a new travel guide by the authors of New Mexico: A New Guide to the Colorful State. More portable than its predecessor, the book includes the same personal introduction to New Mexico's land, people, food, art, and environment in a smaller format. Each of the eighteen tours begins in a readily accessible town and many can be completed in one day. Clear, readable maps accompany each tour. In addition to covering the usual tourist attractions, the authors provide a calendar of yearly events, entradas that describe the various ways to enter the state, and up-to-date information on the less well-known small towns, farming communities, pueblos, and villages that only travelers with an intimate knowledge of the state and its culture could provide. Touring New Mexico will be especially valuable to the first time visitor or newcomer, but it will also be a handy reference for residents who love to explore their state. Enlivened by line drawings by artist and calligrapher Katherine Chilton, this book will charm and inform readers and explorers.
