We don't want his book. We want your book about the Baja Indians

Cindi, do you have the book already or just passing the information on to us?

Thank you for doing so... It looks to be a revised edition of his 1974 edition of that book.

Just passing the info along. Zella of CAREM told us about it several months ago, and promised she'd let us know when it was out. It may be a re-write of material that he's already published. The history doesn't change, after all - but as you say, possibly revised with the addition of subsequent new information. Maybe a publication that can be readily sold in the CAREM shop and stocked in the Mission museums and elsewhere at an affordable price for all Baja tourists. Dr. Mathes is a big supporter of CAREM. Bajanomad should buy a couple hundred and sell them at $12.50 - give us a break here.
