Synopsis "On the Road to Mexico (in English)"
"This is the first Sunday afternoon I ever spent at a bullfight. And it will probably be the last." - W.F. Cramb The year is 1937, and a small town newspaper editor decides to abandon the frigid winds of Nebraska in wintertime and undertake a two-week road trip "Down Mexico Way," as the song goes. So he packs up his roadster and, with his wife and another couple in tow, heads south. Travel along with him and take a tour of a world that no longer exists. This was the same Mexico Graham Greene saw when he was commissioned to write The Lawless Roads just a year later. This was a Mexico still recovering from the violent, anticlerical purges of President Plutarco Elías Calles. It was a country struggling with rampant poverty. It was also a place of beautiful landscapes and beautiful people trying to enjoy life, despite the hardships. W.F. Cramb was editor of The Fairbury Journal for over fifty years. In that time, he took many road trips across this continent. Many of his travels ended up in the pages of the paper.
