Also,... more info

Customer Review:
As an avid North American Birder, I needed a Field Guide like this one since I'll be traveling on the Yucatan during January.

Price: $3.97

Customer Review:
A strange title for a book that sums up one of the problems of USA's intervention in Central America.

I enjoyed reading Working Hard, Drinking Hard immensely. I had very little knowledge of Honduras before reading it, but Pine's background information was more than sufficient for my understanding.

Since... more info
