NEW BOOK NEWS..... once again this summer we have been buying a lot of new and interesting books..... we were able to come back from the San Francisco Libary’s BIG BOOK SALE.... came back south with 30 boxes of books and now in the process of getting them into the mix..... also was able to pick up a few copies of out-of-print Baja books....... in response to your requests have stocked many of the Latin America’s most popular authors.... Isabel Allende/Carlos Castaneda/Octavio Paz/Garbriel Garcia Marquez.....

Several Baja related books are now out-of-print and they are available here in the store... Baja California Plant Field Guide.....Norman C. Roberts.. There are probably over 4,000 species or varieties of higher plants that occur in Baja Calif. Wiggins ‘Flora of Baja Calif’ lists 155 families, 88 genera, and over 2,700 species of plants as occurring in Baja Calif and the nearby islands... This book discusses or describes over 550 and pictures over 275 of them.....

The Cave Paintings of Baja California - Harry W. Crosby.....We have a very few copies of this unbelieveable Baja book on the cave paintings.... a great Xmas gift......

The Unforgettable Sea Of Cortez - Gene S. Kira.....Believe we have probably 6 copies left of this new reprint of the original..... it is without a doubt a Baja Classic.....
