Beyond Baja Legends (New Book)

by Greg Niemann

Beyond Legends: From Beautiful Baja to Mainland Mexico is a broad collection of stories covering adventures, places, people, and historical events throughout Baja California. Greg Niemann, author of two previous books about Baja, has written and compiled these stand-alone articles over several decades that cover the length and breadth of both Baja California states. Included are a few stories from the Mexican mainland, from surviving a terrifying hurricane in Mazatlán to lazing in Yucatan haciendas converted from old sisal plantations.
Discover what Wyatt Earp, John Steinbeck, Erle Stanley Gardner, Steve McQueen, and other notable figures had to do with Baja California. It’s all there, including a section on Mexican culture, holidays and events. Expats, tourists, and those with an interest in the land “down south” will be fascinated by the scope of information in Beyond Baja Legends. There are a lot of “I didn’t know that” moments.
