Opis

This is the amazing and compelling story of how Baja California, through actual, yet unrelated events at first, contributes to its eventual secession from Mexico, thus becoming a new nation and eventually "The 51st State" of the United States. A storyline so believable, you'd think you've read it from today's headlines. Many of the incidents in this book are real, albeit tweaked a bit to carry the story line. Moreover, the author's experiences in Baja California are unique as he has lived through many of the events depicted that make up this narrative. The majority of the characters are also real, even though most of the names have been changed, some are still alive. Occurrences that formulate the book are also authentic but timelines were changed for this story; from the massive floods that occurred in the seventies in California, Nevada, Arizona, and in Baja, to recent ecological challenges and today's immigration problems, massive cartel issues, secession meetings, off-road events, and the possibilities of the most recent terrorists' attempts. The compendium of all these are brought to life in this book. Lastly, part of the book also deals with the author's own ideas as to how Baja California should be governed, and how the political climate in the United States should change; suggesting certain solutions that will take into consideration, term limits, environmental dilemmas, immigration solutions, economic growth and even the unusual occurrences that elected an unlikely individual to become the President United States. In short, ABAJA U.S.A. is as timely as today's headlines and provides a template for a greater America.
