    MIRACULOUS
    AIR

    JOURNEY
    OF A THOUSAND MILES 

    THROUGH BAJA CALIFORNIA,

    THE OTHER MEXICO





    "A luminous
    exploration of Baja California,

    from its southern tip at Cabo San Lucas

    to its 'lost city' of Tijuana... [Mayo] takes

    the fiction writer's impulse and blends it 

    with the instincts of a journalist to 

    create a work of nonfiction that elides into 

    modern myth"

    Los
    Angeles Times Book Review

    
Available from
    fine bookstores throughout the U.S.

    (and also in many English-language bookstores in Mexico.)

"With
    elegant prose and an artist's eye for detail, Mayo 

    may just have written one of the best books ever 

    about Baja California. Highly recommended"

    Library
    Journal



    "Ay,
    if only I had been at C.M. Mayo's side in her rendezvous through


    Baja California... My recourse is her joyful, intellectually
    sparkling chronicle"

    Ilan
    Stavans,

    author of The Hispanic Condition



    "A
    beguiling picture of an exasperating place 'where nothing is
    as it seems,' 

    a place both 'touched with evil' and blessed with beauty and
    hope... 

    a stunning portrait of Baja California" 

    Sara
    Mansfield Taber,

    author of Dusk on the Campo



    "C.M.
    Mayo uses a reporter's instincts, an artist's eye, and a deft
    literary touch to create visions of Baja California to delight
    those who know it best and offers a knowing introduction to others
    who resort to the pleasures of these pages. A sensitive and knowing
    over-view of a place and a people so near and yet so far from
    the
    U.S. or Mexico."

    Harry
    W. Crosby,

    author of Antigua California
