Tales of Armenta

Martha Isabel Alvarado Watkins

4.9/5 (25975 ratings)

Description:The Escoto family lived on a hacienda called Armenta at the foot of the Merendón mountain in Honduras. The adventures of the family on the hacienda offer a unique insight into life in Honduras during the first half of the twentieth century, a time when Hondurans and foreigners were still in awe of the mysteries of the country’s impenetrable mountains and the richness of its dazzling tropical flora and fauna.A delightful book, woven throughout with the threads of nostalgia, it tells the real-life saga of 12 children and their parents, who travelled from the hinterland to the north coast of Honduras in 1914. Cornelio’s love for the land and Narcisa’s courage against all odds are the pillars of a life full of happiness and sorrows. Surviving the battles in the face of overwhelming circumstances was their legacy as was the courage of their unbreakable spirit. Read about the electrifying encounter with a deadly snake, the frightening hunt of a dangerous jaguar, the nocturnal fireballs gliding silently on the grass of the hacienda, the beauty of Palomo, the proud white horse, the delight of spending Christmas on the hacienda, and the poignant story of the beautiful Tinita. These are some of the tales that will enchant and enthral you. More than a memory of childhood and youth, this is a tribute to the pioneering spirit of the Escoto family. This book is a classic storybook about Honduras that glows with the stories of people who thought that hard work, honour, and nobility of spirit were the essence of their life.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
