A "must-read" before setting out to parts unknown

Award-winning author Bruce Whipperman brings his first-hand experience in sunny Acapulco to the pages of Moon Handbooks Acapulco, discussing the secluded beaches, bustling crafts market, historic highland towns and more that pepper this vibrant land. From how to pack for paradise (water purifying tablets are a must) to basic information for those curious in making a permanent investment (avoid timeshares, and while Mexican law prohibits foreign ownership of many properties it is possible to have control of land through a trust) to directions for the best accomodations and food, sights and special celebrations, a brief Spanish phrase guide, internet resources for further research, and much more. A "must-read" before setting out to parts unknown.
