About the Book

Total Tripping: FMexico is just one of the collections that spans the years 1979–2012 and consists of Carl Lahser’s travel diaries, short stories, and poetry collections. The collection is arranged into two series: “Publications” and “Photographs and Notes.” The “Publications” series is arranged into three subseries: travel, poetry, and other topics. The travel subseries consists of descriptions of his trips with his wife, Carol Lahser, to Canada, China, Europe, Mexico, the United States, and Panama and one early trip to Hong Kong in 1979. However, most of the travel took place between 1990 and 2012. Topics in this series range from ecology to flying to health. The second series, “Photographs and Notes,” comes with photographs from various trips, family pictures, as well as notes and rough drafts from his writings. Due to the numerous places and experiences gathered in Mexico, this book is solely covering the said country.
