Mexico: Leading the Southern Hemisphere

Hardcover (Mason Crest, an Imprint of National Highlights Inc Aug. 15, 2014)
To the south of the United States lies Mexico, a country with a long and fascinating history. Mexico is a land of contrasts rich in culture and natural beauty, though millions of its citizens live in poverty and squalid conditions. Mexico features bustling cities and sleepy rural towns; arid deserts, sandy beaches, and forested mountain ranges; the crumbling remains of ancient civilizations and new manufacturing facilities that utilize 21st-century technology. Mexico and the United States are more than just neighbors; the two countries have strong economic ties, and millions of Mexicans have emigrated to the United States seeking jobs and greater opportunities. The new 16-book series Mexico: Leading the Southern Hemisphere provides a wealth of information for students on this major country of Latin America. Ten of the volumes provide overviews and useful facts on the history and culture of Mexico, from the country's food and festivals to the important figures in its history. Six other
