The first general history of
Mexico to be published in English in nearly thirty years, Richard
Grabman's Gods, Gachupines and Gringos is one of the only Mexican
histories ever written with the general reader in mind.
While solidly researched, Gods, Gachupines and Gringos is
written in a radically non-academic style, putting flesh and bones on
the dusty figures of the past and shedding light on the common humanity
of the Mexican people throughout history, often with suprising wit and
humor.
Destined to be a classic in its field, Gods, Gachupines and Gringos has already been praised by scholars and general readers alike.
Editorial Mazatlán is printing Gods, Gachupines and
Gringos in a typeface specifically chosen to enhance its readability.
With cover and page art by cutting-edge designer and artist, Joaquín Ramón
Herrera (XOLOGRAFIK Art and Illustration), maps by Dennis Slack and book design
by Michele DeFilippo (1106 Design), and an index designed for easy use, Gods, Gachupines and Gringos is specifically
designed for the general reader and is a must for every mexiphile’s library.

"Sixty Minutes" producer Frank Koughan has called Richard Grabman "The best foreign writer in Mexico". Grabman lived in Mexico City between 2001 and 2005, then
moved to Alpine, Texas to write about border issues, and to work on
Gods, Gachupines and Gringos. Presently, he divides his time between
Mazatlán and Mexico City. In addition to work for several publications in the United States, Latin American and Great Britain, Richard Grabman maintains a website, The Mex Files,
which reviews Mexican culture and politics, often from a historical
perspective.
