Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the political and economic upheaval that swept El Salvador in the 1980s, as many as 20,000 Salvadorans took refuge in Costa Rica. Despite similarities between the countries, most Salvadorans experienced El Salvador and Costa Rica as very different places; yet some 6,000 chose to remain after the violence in their country ended, re-establishing their lives successfully enough that they claimed that they now "felt Costa Rican." Bridget Hayden examines the ways in which these people integrated into Costa Rican society and the ambiguous sense of identity they developed, exploring their experience of the process and the cultural concepts they used to interpret those experiences. Salvadorans in Costa Rica: Displaced Lives introduces readers to people from a wide range of class and educational backgrounds who had come to Costa Rica from all over El Salvador. All shared the experience of having become refugees and having settled in a new country under the same circumstances, and when the war in their own country ended, they shared a concern about the issues involved in deciding whether to return there. Their diversity allows Hayden to examine the ways in which the language of national identity played out in different contexts and sometimes contradictory ways. Drawing on contemporary theories of migration and space, Hayden identifies the discourses, narratives, and concepts that Salvadorans in Costa Rica had in common and then analyzes the ways in which their experiences and their uses of those discourses varied. She focuses on key spatial concepts that Salvadorans used in talking about displacement and re-emplacement in order to show how they constructed the experience of settlement and how such variables as gender and age influenced their experiences. Because "nationality" was an idiom they used to relate their experiences, she pays particular attention to the role of national belonging and national differenceÑin terms of both the ways in which the Salvadorans were received by Costa Ricans and their reactions to their new lives in Costa Rica. A concluding chapter compares them with Salvadorans who emigrated to other countries. The story of these displaced Salvadorans, focusing on the lives of real people, can give us a new understanding of how individuals feel a sense of belonging to a sociocultural space. By exploring many meanings of the nation and national belonging for different people under varying conditions, Hayden's study provides fresh insights into the dynamics of migration, gender, and nationalism.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER "Destined to become an adventure classic." —Anchorage Daily News Hailed as "gripping" (New York Times) and "beautiful" (Washington Post), The Adventurer's Son is Roman Dial’s extraordinary and widely acclaimed account of his two-year quest to unravel the mystery of his son’s disappearance in the jungles of Costa Rica. In the predawn hours of July 10, 2014, the twenty-seven-year-old son of preeminent Alaskan scientist and National Geographic Explorer Roman Dial, walked alone into Corcovado National Park, an untracked rainforest along Costa Rica’s remote Pacific Coast that shelters miners, poachers, and drug smugglers. He carried a light backpack and machete. Before he left, Cody Roman Dial emailed his father: “I am not sure how long it will take me, but I’m planning on doing 4 days in the jungle and a day to walk out. I’ll be bounded by a trail to the west and the coast everywhere else, so it should be difficult to get lost forever.” They were the last words Dial received from his son. As soon as he realized Cody Roman’s return date had passed, Dial set off for Costa Rica. As he trekked through the dense jungle, interviewing locals and searching for clues—the authorities suspected murder—the desperate father was forced to confront the deepest questions about himself and his own role in the events. Roman had raised his son to be fearless, to be at home in earth’s wildest places, travelling together through rugged Alaska to remote Borneo and Bhutan. Was he responsible for his son’s fate? Or, as he hoped, was Cody Roman safe and using his wilderness skills on a solo adventure from which he would emerge at any moment? Part detective story set in the most beautiful yet dangerous reaches of the planet, The Adventurer’s Son emerges as a far deeper tale of discovery—a journey to understand the truth about those we love the most. The Adventurer’s Son includes fifty black-and-white photographs.

Book excerpt: FROM PURA VIDA TO THE ROACH MOTEL IN 11 SHORT YEARS. CR CAPTIVE IS QUITE LITERALLY A CAPTIVE IN COSTA RICA. SKIP THE PROPOGANDA & TOURIST TRAPS. YOU COULD BE RISKING YOUR LIFE (OR THOSE OF YOUR FAMILY) BY COMING TO COSTA RICA WITHOUT FIRST READING THIS BOOK. This is not a joke! I need help.My 92 year old mother is suffering from a broken hip in Florida & desperately needs her only son. Costa Rican police kidnapped me, took my life savings, & now prevent me from leaving Costa Rica to take care of my mother.It was truly Paradise, where I built my pyramid in the jungle---& from where Costa Rica Then/Costa Rica Now is written. The #1 cause of premature death was traffic accidents. #2 was drowning. Along with the scenic mountains, the beautiful women lined the roads & always greeted you with a smile. Mom loved it also, & planned to move here when she no longer felt comfortable living alone. Walking the beach in the moonlight was a joy beyond words. And then came Costa Rica Now.At first, the women kept their same clothes, & stomachs flapped over the undersized shorts as their blouses couldn't stretch to their navels. Finally they gave up & bought fat clothes. Now they (literally) throw you in jail for looking at them. Murder is so common that everyone knows the price of a "hit" ($38). Mom was robbed & left with nothing but the clothes on her back. I was robbed first by the police, then by the Mob, & finally by a judge. NO CHARGES/NO CRIME/NO COURT/ RIGHTS/NP PHONE CALL/NO TOILET/NO WATER/NO FOOD! Just: "Give us $9000 in cash, or you will never see daylight again." At the beginning of Cost Rica Now, crooks were the reason no one walked the beach at night. In the daytime, you cannot take your eyes off of your stuff---or even lock it in your car. But now police ARE the thieves, & act with impunity. In other Central American countries, highway robbers are the main concern. In Costa Rica, the highway robbers wear uniforms & are paid by the government. Somalian pirates kidnap until a ransom is paid. Costa Rican police now do exactly that. The US Embassy has finally issued travel warnings for the crime. Every country has criminals. Costa Rica puts them on the payroll.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lands between Mesoamerica and the Central Andes are famed for the rich diversity of ancient cultures that inhabited them. Throughout this vast region, from about AD 700 until the sixteenth-century Spanish invasion, a rich and varied tradition of goldworking was practiced. The amount of gold produced and worn by native inhabitants was so great that Columbus dubbed the last New World shores he sailed as Costa Rica—the "Rich Coast." Despite the long-recognized importance of the region in its contribution to Pre-Columbian culture, very few books are readily available, especially in English, on these lands of gold. Gold and Power in Ancient Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia now fills that gap with eleven articles by leading scholars in the field. Issues of culture change, the nature of chiefdom societies, long-distance trade and transport, ideologies of value, and the technologies of goldworking are covered in these essays as are the role of metals as expressions and materializations of spiritual, political, and economic power. These topics are accompanied by new information on the role of stone statuary and lapidary work, craft and trade specialization, and many more topics, including a reevaluation of the concept of the "Intermediate Area." Collectively, the volume provides a new perspective on the prehistory of these lands and includes articles by Latin American scholars whose writings have rarely been published in English.

Or will he succumb to the jungle heat, scorpions, and machete-wielding marauders?
