This is the story of a man and his family in the face of the adversities that life presents him. The sea is the Gulf of Mexico where, between hurricanes and shipwrecks, the unbendable fighting character of the protagonist is tempered, who learns to never give up, turning disasters into opportunities for improvement. The salt is the field of labor that brings hope to this tenacious Yucatecan, who learns to reap benefits for himself and his community.

Sea and Salt is much more than a historical novel of epic and entertaining tales of the fascinating Yucatan Peninsula, it’s a coming-of-age story in the exciting and promising Mexico of the 20th Century, where the spirit of work defined an entire generation of company captains and social leaders. Filial love is the basis for determining loyalty, commitment and honor.
