In 1953 the author at 19 set out with his camera for an adventure in Mexico. It was a beautiful and mysterious place for Hagan and his traveling companion. A deep past intruded into the hopeful present at every turn. From the hundreds of negatives he made then, a memorable portrait of a nation just a generation out of its revolution has now been assembled, honoring a people awaiting the realization of their ideals and dreams. 160 photographs, black and white, organized in six portfolios; 220 pages, with captions and a preface. (The story of the roadtrip is told in another book of photographs and text, "Mexico 1953: The Roadtrip" available here.)
