Sangster and Leffel, both experienced travel writers, have written this guide to visiting Mexico and Central America with a practical yet novel tone that concentrates on staying out of trouble and keeping healthy. Noting some of the risks encountered during travel to these areas, the authors offer plenty of tips on how to save money on lodging and transportation, how to negotiate with locals, and how to have memorable adventures by "traveling with a purpose." A companion website offers additional resources for potential travelers to these regions.
