Arturo, CONGRATULATIONS !!!!
I just placed an order. Looking forward to reading your book.
Would it be politically correct to crash one of your family reunions? After all, we are distant cousins.
Saludos, Helyn

When I began the project I debated whether I should write it in English or in Spanish. I made up my mind when I started doing research and realized that all of the ethnographic work that had been done in the region had been done in English and therefore was inaccessible to the local population. Also, some of the older members of my family do not read English and I felt like it would be a worthwhile challange to write something in Spanish. (I have never had any education in Spanish other than my mothers and sisters teaching me to read and write in Spanish at home). For English-only members, I hope that you will try to struggle through it nevertheless.
The book is currently only available online at the website I mentioned in my earlier message. George Farias will also be distributing for me but at a higher price than that direct from the printer. Depending on the interest I get, I may later buy a distribution contract so that it is available through other bookstores.
Thank you everyone for your feedback and thank you to all of the members of Nuestros Ranchos that made the book possible, particularly my cousins who helped me get started and shared information with me.
