LETRAS INTERIORES
Las literaturas regionales se reconocen a sí mismas en un intercambio acotado por su tiempo y espacios propios. En el caso del Estado de Guanajuato, se origina en fechas recientes un movimiento de tertulias literarias que, de modo itinerante, ha recorrido prácticamente todo el mundo. Con ese dinamismo se ha podido integrar una nómina amplia de escritores que no sólo engrosan la propia tertulia, sino que dan testimonio de la vitalidad del orbe de las letras en este sector del mundo.

Coronado
Herbert Eugene Bolton’s classic of southwestern history, first published in 1949, delivers the epic account of Francisco Vásquez de Coronado’s sixteenth-century entrada to the North American frontier of the Spanish Empire.

With documents in hand, Bolton personally followed the path of the Coronado expedition, providing readers with unsurpassed storytelling and meticulous research.
