Sobre IBD

No se sabe qué mosca lo picó; lo cierto es que, a comienzos del siglo XX, Harry A. Franck realizó una aventura que lo llevó por México, Guatemala y Honduras. El explorador 'gringo' encontró pueblos apartados, haciendas, montañas, selvas, caminos casi intransitables... y personajes de todas las razas. Muchas noches durmió a la intemperie y saboreó platillos exóticos. En Honduras, visitó la bella Santa Rosa de Copán, se maravilló con la cultura maya y atravesó el país de 'las enormes profundidades'. La obra permite descubrir la Honduras de principios del siglo XX, su geografía, costumbres y formas de vida. HARRY ALVERSON FRANCK. Escritor, viajero y cronista estadounidense. Nació el 29 de junio de 1881 en Michigan, Estados Unidos, y murió el 18 de abril de 1962 en New Hope, Pensilvania. Principales obras: Un viaje de vagabundo alrededor del mundo, Cuatro meses a pie por España, Policía de la Zona 88, A pie por México, Guatemala y Honduras, Vagabundeando por los Andes, Vagabundeando por una Alemania cambiante, Vagando por el norte de China, En los confines del mundo musulmán, Tras las huellas de Cortés por México y Un vagabundo en tierras soviéticas.
