Six Months in Mexico by Nellie Bly

"Six Months in Mexico" by Nellie Bly is a travel book written around 1885. At just 21, Bly worked as a foreign correspondent in Mexico, documenting the lives, customs, and poverty of its people. She observed lottery addiction, courtship rituals, tobacco use, and soldiers' marijuana consumption. Her candid reporting on journalist imprisonment under dictator Porfirio Díaz eventually forced her to flee the country to avoid imprisonment herself. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
