The people's guide to Mexico

Anyone use this book? http://www.amazon.com/Peoples-Guide-Mexico/dp/1566914345

It's really weird, it's a cult classic, full of stories about Mexico, but not really focused on places to stay and such, more on the culture. More about how to travel in Mexico, than where to particularly go.

A curse upon that book! Causually picked it up off a friends bookshelf one day many years ago and...poof!...there went 15 years of my life! Like a hit of crack for the innocent youthful vagabond.

So yeah, great book. :) Carl and Lorena have a nice website as well:
