Tongues of the Monte
by by Dobie, J. Frank
pub. by Univ of Texas Press, 1980 - - (first publisheed 1935) - isbn 978-0292780354 - - 301 pages.
This book is in my opinion Dobies best, at least on a literary level. It is the story of his wanderings in
northern Mexico during a sabatical. Dobie is a folklorist, but this work mixes folklore and travelogue with a
mystical twist in places. He unabasedly notes he disguises the locations so that others can not follow
in his footsteps and bother his ranch owner friends. Read this book. It is exceptionally good.
