In 1983 Graham Mackintosh was a lecturer at West Kent College in England, teaching social sciences and special education to unemployed teenagers. In the hope of showing his students that a shoestring expedition could be the adventure of a lifetime, Mackintosh, who described himself as the "least adventurous person in the world," set out to walk around the beautiful but dangerous coastline of Baja California.

The two-year, 3,000-mile trip changed his life. When Mackintosh emerged from the cactus-strewn wilderness, he returned to England to write Into a Desert Place and there received the prestigious "Adventurous Traveler of the Year" award. Mackintosh was soon drawn back to Baja. After years promoting Into a Desert Place in the USA and Baja California, and scores of trips below the border, he eventually decided to walk down the rugged, mountainous interior of Baja, visiting many of the old missions along the way. Journey with a Baja Burro, his second book, was the result. It describes his arduous thousand-mile journey with a pack burro from the US border to Loreto – a trip that began exactly 300 years after the October 1697 founding of the Loreto mission, the first permanent European settlement in the "Californias."<br><a href=http://www.dropjack.com/Technology/buy-adobe-creative-suite-5-5-master-collection-buy-cheap-adobe-creative-suite-5-5-master-collection-cheap-adobe-creative-suite-5-5-master-collection-3/>Buy Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection, Buy cheap Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection, cheap Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection</a>
