This is a warm and convincing story about the author's love for his country - Chile. Interestingly it is not his place of birth. He traveled there to teach English in 2001 but unlike many people he did not want to return home. Instead, he embraced his home and reveals to us a deep love and respect for this ancient land. Baker walks his reader across its vast mountains and through its deep valleys. He takes us on a vivid journey that is made better through intimate insights into his life and the day to day activities of the Chilean people.This book is easy to read and offers the reader a deep insight into the relationship these warm people have with their striking landscape. Thomas Baker gives us a detailed and intriguing look at this interesting country. I, for one, want to visit Chile now after reading this great book and I will recommend it highly.
