Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Notes in Mexico, in 1861 and 1862: Politically and Socially Considered
The merciful hand of Providence has bestowed on the Mexicans a magnificent land, abounding in resources of all kinds - a land where none ought to be poor, and where misery ought to be unknown - a land whose products and riches of every kind are abundant, and as varied as they are rich. It is a country endowed to profusion with every gift that man can desire or envy; - all the metals from gold to lead; every sort of climate from perpetual snow to tropical heat, and inconceivable fertility. Wheat, maize, barley, sugar, coffee, spices, tobacco, cotton, indigo, drugs, &c., are cultivated with little effort.
