My Heart Lies South, Young People's Edition: The Story of My Mexican Marriage (Young Adult)

by Elizabeth Borton de Trevino Author

(From Amazon): What happens when a thoroughly twentieth-century American lady journalist becomes a Mexican senora in nineteen-thirties provincial Monterrey? She finds herself 151 sometimes hilariously 151 coping with servants, daily food allowances, bargaining, and dramatic Latin emotions. It is like stepping back a hundred years. In this vivid autobiography, Newbery Award winning author Elizabeth Borton de Trevino brings to life her experiences with the culture and the faith of a civilization so close to the United States, but rarely appreciated or understood. This special young people s edition presents the humor and the insights of a remarkable woman and her contact with an era which is now past, but not to be forgotten.
