Land of the Noonday Sun Mexico in Mid Winter
Justice Walter Clark describes Mexico's court system, law, education, housing, streets, and daily life. He notes codified Napoleonic law, jury trials limited to criminal cases, extensive adobe architecture, busy street signs, and the mix of modern utilities with traditional markets. He reflects on religion, labor, wages, class mobility, travel, and urban changes near Mexico City and Zacatecas, with cultural contrasts and a panoramic view from La Bufa.
