En este volumen se ofrece por primera vez la traducción al español de un texto del viajero austriaco del siglo XIX Isidore Löwenstern. Este volumen constituye un excelente retrato de la vida y costumbres del México de la época, así como de los lugares y situaciones de mayor importancia para el viajero. Es, además, una aproximación privilegiada, desde la perspectiva de un explorador de filiación monárquica y colonialista, al pensamiento que el hombre del viejo mundo guardaba sobre su contraparte extranjera.
