Survivors in Mexico

More about the book

This work is Rebecca West's exploration of Mexican history, religion and culture, a work the author clearly conceived as a companion and sequel to her masterpiece about the Balkans, Black Lamb and Grey Falcon (1941). Although West never brought Survivors to completion, she left behind a series of extensive drafts and revisions that Bernard Schweizer has assembled and edited. The result is an addition to the Rebecca West canon - a travel memoir and history.
