Overland travel between the United States and Mexico became instantly faster, smoother, and cheaper when workers connected the two countries' rail lines in 1884, creating intense curiosity in the United States about Mexico, its people, and its opportunities for business and pleasure. As a result, so many Americans began to travel south of the border during the Porfiriato that observers from both sides of the border began to quip that the visiting hordes of tourists and business speculators constituted a "foreign invasion," a phrase laced with irony given that it appeared at the height of public debate in the United States about the nation's imperial future. These travelers created a rich and varied record of their journeys, constructing Mexico as a nation at the cusp of modernity but requiring foreign intervention to reach its full potential"--Provided by publisher.AmericansTravelMexicoHistory19th centuryTourismMexicoHistory19th centuryInvestments, AmericanMexicoHistory19th centuryMexicoHistory1867-1910Electronic books.AmericansTravelHistoryTourismHistoryInvestments, AmericanHistory917.2/04Ruiz Jason974714MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463732203321Americans in the treasure house2219544UNINA
